Binding is sound and the cloth is clean For a short time during the Hundred Years War, the Lancastrian monarchy, supported by its Burgundian allies, successfully claimed to rule Paris and northern France. John, Duke of Bedford, brother of Henry V and an outstanding administrator and soldier, was regent of France for his nephew, Henry VI, from 1422 to 1435. Three inventories of Bedford's wordly goods, compiled after his death for his executors, have survived in the Public Record Office, London. Hitherto unpublished, these documents are of exceptional importance for historians and art-historians of later medieval England and France. The introduction and notes which enrich this critical edition explore Bedford's court, his collections, and his artistic patronage in London, Paris and Rouen. The author discusses questions of provenance - the French royal collections and spoils of war - and investigates a wealth of administrative, financial and legal issues raised by the inventories, as well as technical terminology in Middle English and French. The book concludes with biographies of forty of Bedford's officers and creditors in England and France. Bedford's executors were historical figures of the first importance such as Cardinal Beaufort and Sir John Fastolf; their activities are unravelled against the background of the loss of France and civil war in England. Historians of the fifteenth century, specialists in social and economic history, in goldsmith's work, textiles and manuscripts, will find much of importance in this richly illustrated book. Jenny stratford is a former Assistant Keeper, Department of Manuscripts, the British Museum. A fifteenth-century specialist, her books include catalogues of manuscripts in the British Library and the Royal Library, Windsor Castle. She is a Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries and of the Royal Historical Society. [Banbury, OXON, United Kingdom] [Publication Year: 2009]

Commentary in English with texts in English, French, and Latin. 'Summary:John of Lancaster (1389-1435), later Duke of Bedford, was the son of Henry IV and Mary Bohun. After John's father, Henry, deposed Richard II in 1399, John and his brothers were able to obtain land and titles which brought them a large amount of power. After the English invasion of France by his brother, Henry V, John spent much of his time in France involved in warfare and was present at the peace treaty of Troyes in 1420. During this time he was responsible for the tenuous alliance between England and Burgandy against France. In 1423 he married Anne of Burgandy but they did not have any children. The Burgundian alliance broke down in 1435 shortly before his own death.' [Chadwell Heath, United Kingdom] [Publication Year: 2009]
