Publisher's
recommended price US$200.00/c.£120.00
The
final
volume
in the series (started 1916) of Chancery documents now classified in
the
Public Record Office as Inquisitions Miscellaneous. Over
500 documents
of public complaints into which the king’s government enquired:
treason,
murder, robbery and piracy, matters of inheritance and landholding, the
decay of towns, buildings, roads and waterways, ecclesiastical
negligence,
even distinguishing levels of insanity. The Calendar reflects the
collapse
of the Lancastrian regime, the upheavals of the Wars of the Roses, a
new
start under Edward IV, and the drama of Richard III's assumption of the
throne.
