David Carpenter is Professor of Medieval History at King's College, University of London.
"In an almost unique approach, Carpenter systematically addresses
the parallel and intertwining political histories of Scotland, and
Wales, tying in where appropriate the relations of all three
regions to Ireland and the continent."--Albion
"Accessible, scholarly work...offers much of value to beginning
researchers as well as to more experienced scholars."--CHOICE
"[A] synthesis of British, and related Irish and continental
history by one of the leading historians of thirteenth-century
England."--Albion
"Although mainly a work of synthesis, The Struggle for Mastery:
Britain 1066-1284 makes a substantial contribution to our knowledge
and interpretation of the period. Carpenter's book takes its place
immediately as one of the best on the subject. There is nothing as
up-to-date as The Struggle for Mastery with a comparable
perspective."--History
