William of Worcester's Chronicle of England
William of Worcester, born around 1415, and died around 1482 was secretary to John Fastolf, the renowned soldier of the Hundred Years War, during which time he collected documents, letters, and wrote a record of events. Following their return to England in 1440 William was witness to major events. Twice in his chronicle he uses the first person: 1. when writing about the murder of Thomas, 7th Baron Scales, in 1460, he writes '… and I saw him lying naked in the cemetery near the porch of the church of St. Mary Overie in Southwark …' and 2. describing King Edward IV's entry into London in 1461 he writes '… proclaimed that all the people themselves were to recognize and acknowledge Edward as king. I was present and heard this, and immediately went down with them into the city'. William’s Chronicle is rich in detail. It is the source of much information about the Wars of the Roses, including the term 'Diabolical Marriage' to describe the marriage of Queen Elizabeth Woodville’s brother John’s marriage to Katherine, Dowager Duchess of Norfolk, he aged twenty, she sixty-five or more, and the story about a paper crown being placed in mockery on the severed head of Richard, 3rd Duke of York.

Annals of the six Kings of England by Nicholas Trivet
Translation of the Annals of the Six Kings of England by that traces the rise and rule of the Angevin aka Plantagenet dynasty from the mid-12th to early 14th century. Written by the Dominican scholar Nicholas Trivet, the work offers a vivid account of English history from the reign of King Stephen through to the death of King Edward I, blending political narrative with moral reflection. Covering the reigns of six monarchs—from Stephen to Edward I—the chronicle explores royal authority, rebellion, war, and the shifting balance between crown, church, and nobility. Trivet provides detailed insight into defining moments such as baronial conflicts, Anglo-French rivalry, and the consolidation of royal power under Edward I, whose reign he describes with particular immediacy. The Annals combines careful year-by-year reporting with thoughtful interpretation, presenting history not merely as a sequence of events but as a moral and political lesson. Ideal for readers interested in medieval history, kingship, and the origins of the English state, this chronicle remains a valuable and accessible window into the turbulent world of the Plantagenet kings.

Chronicle of Geoffrey le Baker of Swinbroke. Having left Gloucester, the queen hastened with her army to the town of Bristol,1 which, as previously mentioned, was held by Hugh Despenser the Elder [aged 65]. She came intending to besiege both the town and the castle, if necessary. But despair, which often forces open even the strongest fortresses, compelled that noble earl to surrender himself and all he had into the mercy of the angry woman. Thus, the town and castle were surrendered. Upon entering, the virago2 ordered the said earl to be put to death without any trial or opportunity to answer for himself. The valiant knight was immediately bound, his arms and legs stretched out, and before his own eyes, his entrails were cruelly cut out from his opened belly and thrown into the fire. What remained of his body was then tied to horses and dragged, and finally hanged on the public gallows reserved for thieves.
Gloucestria relicta, ad villam Bristollie, quam, ut pretactum est, ocupavit Hugo Despenser pater, regina cum exercitu properavit, obsessura tam villam quam castrum, si oportuisset. Set loca munitissima solita reserare desperacio compulit generosum illum comitem in irate femine misericordiam se et sua cuncta commendare. Reddebantur igitur villa cum castro; quo ingressa, virago iussit comitem predictum sine questione seu responsione finali supplicio detorqueri. Alligatur confestim strenuus ille miles, brachiis et tibiis in longum protensis, et, in ipsius viventis conspectu, viscera propria de ventre insciso crudeliter extracta ignibus traduntur, residuum quoque corporis equis detractum in communi furca latronum fuerat suspensum.

Note 2. Froissart 14. The form of the sentence passed on Despenser is given, in French, in Annales Paulini 317.
Froissart Book 1: 1307-1340. [27th October 1326] 14. When the queen [aged 31], the barons, and the others were comfortably lodged, they laid siege to the castle as closely as they could. Then the queen had Sir Hugh Despenser the elder [aged 65] and the Earl of Arundel [aged 41] brought before her eldest son and all the barons who were there, and said that she and her son would give them justice and a fair trial, according to their deeds and actions. Then Sir Hugh replied: 'Ah, lady, may God grant us a just judge and a fair judgment; and if we cannot have it in this world, may He give it to us in the next!' Then rose Sir Thomas Wake [aged 29], a good knight, wise and courteous, who was marshal of the army. He recited all their deeds from a written record, and then turned to an old knight who was there, so that he might deliver a judgment, based on the faith owed by men in such matters, and on the nature of such crimes. The knight consulted with the other barons and knights and then delivered his full judgment: that they had well deserved death, based on the many horrible deeds recounted there against them, which were held to be true and clear. And they had, by the diversity of their crimes, deserved to be executed in three ways: first to be drawn, then beheaded, and finally hanged from the gallows. And just as they were judged, so were they immediately executed before the castle of Bristol, in sight of the king and of the said Sir Hugh the younger [aged 40], and of all those inside, who were filled with deep grief and outrage. And it may be understood that they were in great anguish of heart. This execution was carried out in the year of grace 1326, on the feast of Saint Denis, in October.
14. Quant la royne et tout li baron et li aultre furent herbergiet à leur aise, il assegièrent le chastiel, au plus priès qu'il peurent. Et puis fist la royne ramener monsigneur Huon le Despensier le vielle et le conte d'Arondiel devant son ainsnet fil, et devant tous les barons qui là estoient, et leur dist que elle et ses filz leur feroient droit et loy et bon jugement, selonch leurs fais et leurs œuvres. Adonc respondi messires Hues et dist: «Ha! dame, Diex nous voelle donner bon juge et bon jugement; et se nous ne le poons avoir en ce siècle, si le nous doinst en l'autre!» Adonc se leva messires Thumas Wage, bons chevaliers, sages et courtois, qui estoit mareschaus de l'ost, et leur racompta tous leurs fais par escript, et tourna en droit sus un viel chevalier qui là estoit, afin qu'il raportast sus se feauté que à faire avoit de telz personnes, par jugement, et de telz fais. Li chevaliers se consilla as autres barons et chevaliers, et raporta par plainne sieute que il avoient bien mort desservie, par pluiseurs horribles fais qu'il avoient là endroit oys racompter, et les tenoient pour vrais et tous clers. Et avoient desservi, par le diversité de leurs fais, à estre justiciés en trois manières, c'est à savoir, premiers traynés, et puis decolés, apriès pendus à un gibet. Tout en tel manière qu'il furent jugiet, furent il tantost justiciet par devant le chastiel de Bristo, veant le roy, et veant le dit monsigneur Huon le fil, et tous ceulz de laiens qui grant despit en eurent. Et puet çascuns savoir que il estoient à grant meschief de cuer. Ceste justice fu faite l'an de grasce mil trois cens vingt et six, le jour saint Denis, en octembre.
