The Deeds of the Dukes of Normandy
The Gesta Normannorum Ducum [The Deeds of the Dukes of Normandy] is a landmark medieval chronicle tracing the rise and fall of the Norman dynasty from its early roots through the pivotal events surrounding the Norman Conquest of England. Originally penned in Latin by the monk William of Jumièges shortly before 1060 and later expanded at the behest of William the Conqueror, the work chronicles the deeds, politics, battles, and leadership of the Norman dukes, especially William’s own claim to the English throne. The narrative combines earlier historical sources with firsthand information and oral testimony to present an authoritative account of Normandy’s transformation from a Viking settlement into one of medieval Europe’s most powerful realms. William’s history emphasizes the legitimacy, military prowess, and governance of the Norman line, framing their expansion, including the conquest of England, as both divinely sanctioned and noble in purpose. Later chroniclers such as Orderic Vitalis and Robert of Torigni continued the history, extending the coverage into the 12th century, providing broader context on ducal rule and its impact. Today this classic work remains a foundational source for understanding Norman identity, medieval statesmanship, and the historical forces that reshaped England and Western Europe between 800AD and 1100AD.

Chronicle of Walter of Guisborough
A canon regular of the Augustinian Guisborough Priory, Yorkshire, formerly known as The Chronicle of Walter of Hemingburgh, describes the period from 1066 to 1346. Before 1274 the Chronicle is based on other works. Thereafter, the Chronicle is original, and a remarkable source for the events of the time. This book provides a translation of the Chronicle from that date. The Latin source for our translation is the 1849 work edited by Hans Claude Hamilton. Hamilton, in his preface, says: 'In the present work we behold perhaps one of the finest samples of our early chronicles, both as regards the value of the events recorded, and the correctness with which they are detailed; Nor will the pleasing style of composition be lightly passed over by those capable of seeing reflected from it the tokens of a vigorous and cultivated mind, and a favourable specimen of the learning and taste of the age in which it was framed.'

Chronicle of St Albans by Abbot John Whethamstede [-1465]. [29th March 1461] Trusting thus in the Lord God and placing all the confidence of his expedition in the Lord Himself, he had the Lord aiding him no less than Theodosius the Great had once had, when he was about to engage in battle against Eugenius and Arbogast. For just as for them, due to the hope and faith they held in the Lord, the Lord Himself was present, and caused such a great wind to blow directly into the face of the enemy while they were fighting hand-to-hand, that it reverberated and reflected back, not only their entire volley of missiles or arrows, but also so confused and weakened the leaders, that one of them, namely Arbogast, fell in battle, while the other, namely Eugenius, fleeing from the field, brought about his own demise; similarly, and almost in all respects, because of the trust held in the Lord, the Lord Himself was also present, and gave him power against his enemies, and such grace, that the wind which previously blew in his face, as soon as he was about to fight against the enemy, turned in the opposite direction in such a way that it slowed down and blunted the entire enemy barrage, causing it to do no harm, or very little, to him or his, and inflict no injury. And thus, with his entire barrage nullified, annulled, and frustrated, later, when they reached axes and hatchets, knives and mallets, and other larger instruments, a very fierce battle ensued on both sides, especially on the Prince's side, indeed, a most atrocious one.
Trusting thus in the Lord God and placing all the confidence of his expedition in the Lord Himself, he had the Lord aiding him no less than Theodosius the Great had once had, when he was about to engage in battle against Eugenius and Arbogast. For just as for them, due to the hope and faith they held in the Lord, the Lord Himself was present, and caused such a great wind to blow directly into the face of the enemy while they were fighting hand-to-hand, that it reverberated and reflected back, not only their entire volley of missiles or arrows, but also so confused and weakened the leaders, that one of them, namely Arbogast, fell in battle, while the other, namely Eugenius, fleeing from the field, brought about his own demise; similarly, and almost in all respects, because of the trust held in the Lord, the Lord Himself was also present, and gave him power against his enemies, and such grace, that the wind which previously blew in his face, as soon as he was about to fight against the enemy, turned in the opposite direction in such a way that it slowed down and blunted the entire enemy barrage, causing it to do no harm, or very little, to him or his, and inflict no injury. And thus, with his entire barrage nullified, annulled, and frustrated, later, when they reached axes and hatchets, knives and mallets, and other larger instruments, a very fierce battle ensued on both sides, especially on the Prince's side, indeed, a most atrocious one.
For here you could see another Achilles, the [his nephew] Duke of Norfolk [aged 45], with his soldiers advancing, and there, the young Hector, the Earl of Warwick, engaging with his recruits. And just like that, a second Achilles, Lord de Fauconberg [aged 56], with his citizens, rushing upon the enemies and striking them down. Although, as the poet writes, they didn't depict the fall of Troy so swiftly, they did portray, and continued to paint, the entire royal road from the battlefield almost to the walls of the city of York, a distance of about six miles, with crimson blood. Even though the Lord sent down blood from the heavens, saturating it with an excessive and almost miraculous new colour. For they themselves were valiant military leaders, and not unjustly to be compared to the aforementioned leaders. For at the beginning of the war, when these roaring Northerners were bending and releasing their bows to shoot straight in the dark, the leaders themselves forced them first, because they did not want to keep the covenant of the Lord, nor walk in His law, which dictates that the elder son should always be preferred to the younger son in hereditary right, as the other sons of Ephraim, turning their back on their inheritance on the day of battle. Later, because it was a generation further corrupt and exasperating, a generation, namely, such that it did not direct its heart with the Lord, nor was its spirit believed with Him, they rushed upon them with such force and effort that they forced them, and pressed them so tightly, that they could not flee from their presence, except as young lambs usually flee from the jaws of wolves, or fly from the talons of hawks, their wings trembling, like doves. Their leaders and captains, as many as they had in the field, either fell to the ground with their standards and banners, or fled to hiding places where they could conceal themselves from the edge of the sword.
Sicque in Domino Deo confisus, in ipsoque Domino totam fiduciam suæ expeditionis ponens, non secus ipsum Dominum auxiliantem habuit, quam dudum habuerat Theodosius Magnus, dum contra Eugenium et Arbogasten bellum commissurus erat. Quemadmodum etenim illi, propter spem et fidem in Domino habitas, affuit ipse Dominus, et tam grandem ventum turbineum in facie hostium, dum pugnarent cominus, inflare fecit, ut reverberaret, et repercuteret, omnimodam nedum jaculationem, sive sagittationem, suam, ac destrueret; immo etiam, taliter ipsos confunderet duces, et infirmaret, ut unus illorum, scilicet, Arbogastes, in bello caderet, alter vero, scilicet, Eugenius, e campo fugiens, sibi ipsi interitum procuraret; sic similiter, et quasi per omnia, propter fiduciam in Domino habitam, affuit etiam ipse Dominus, deditque illi contra inimicos potentiam, ac itaque gratiam talem, ut ventum, quem prius in facie flantem habuit, statim ut pugnaturus esset contra hostem, suscepit versum taliter in contrarium, ut totam hostilem sagittationem retardaret, et retunderet, causaretque ut nullum, vel paucum, faceret sibi aut suis damnum, læsuramve inferret. Sicque cassata, annullata, et frustrata, tota sagittatione sua, posterius, cum perventum esset ad secures et ascias, ad sicas et malleolos, ad aliaque instrumenta grandiora, facta erat ex utraque parte, et præcipue ex parte Principis, pugna atrox valde, immo, atrocissima.

Chronicle of Geoffrey le Baker of Swinbroke
Baker was a secular clerk from Swinbroke, now Swinbrook, an Oxfordshire village two miles east of Burford. His Chronicle describes the events of the period 1303-1356: Gaveston, Bannockburn, Boroughbridge, the murder of King Edward II, the Scottish Wars, Sluys, Crécy, the Black Death, Winchelsea and Poitiers. To quote Herbert Bruce 'it possesses a vigorous and characteristic style, and its value for particular events between 1303 and 1356 has been recognised by its editor and by subsequent writers'. The book provides remarkable detail about the events it describes. Baker's text has been augmented with hundreds of notes, including extracts from other contemporary chronicles, such as the Annales Londonienses, Annales Paulini, Murimuth, Lanercost, Avesbury, Guisborough and Froissart to enrich the reader's understanding. The translation takes as its source the 'Chronicon Galfridi le Baker de Swynebroke' published in 1889, edited by Edward Maunde Thompson.
