| Summary | "Chronicles of England, Scotland and Ireland (2 of 6): England (11 of 12)" is a historical account likely written in the late 16th to early 17th century. This volume details the reign of Edward III of England, focusing on key events and conflicts during his rule, as well as notable figures involved in the political landscape of the time. The narrative unfolds through accounts of pivotal moments, including Edward's coronation, struggles for power among nobles, riots, and conflicts with Scotland, providing a rich tapestry of the tumultuous history of medieval Britain. The opening of the volume introduces King Edward III, detailing his ascension to the throne at a young age and the initial governance by a council of lords due to his minority. It outlines the administrative challenges faced by the young king, including the sweeping control that Queen Isabella and Roger Mortimer exercised over the realm. The text then shifts to notable civil disturbances, particularly in Bury, marked by riots led by disgruntled locals against the abbey and its monks, illustrating the social unrest and struggles for power that defined Edward's early reign.
