volume 1 of Hallam's series of Medieval England

>> quite interesting book with beautiful pictures (most of them in colour),
with much complementary information about England's medieval times
but these chronicles are abit boresome to read in full

1/ - the Angevin family
2/ - Geoffrey Plantagenet 1128-1154
3/ - Henry II 1154-1189
4/ - Richard I 1189-1199
