‘An absorbing and eye-opening account of what the Plantagenets did for us.’ - HELEN CASTOR
‘Burt and Partington show precisely and engagingly why the Middle Ages matter.’ - DAN JONES
Between 1199 and 1399, English politics was high drama. These two centuries witnessed savage political bloodshed - including civil war, deposition, the murder of kings, and the ruthless execution of rebel lords - as well as international warfare, a devastating national pandemic, economic crisis, and the first major peasant uprising in English history.
Arise, England uses the six Plantagenet kings who ruled during these two centuries to explore England's emerging nationhood. Drawing on original accounts and compelling new research, it draws parallels between government, international relations, and the abilities, egos, and ambitions of political actors, then and now. Colorful and complex, and at times impressive and hateful, the six kings move through the story; but arguably the greatest character is the emerging English state itself.
