Tales of Conspiracy, Betrayal and Cruelty - a Short History of how the English Ruling Class Behaved During the Middle Ages

It may have been the era of Magna Carta and the birthing of the principle that all should be bound by the rule of law, but in this webinar, author Charles Christian will be providing some snapshots from the reigns of William Rufus, King Stephen and King John to illustrate not only just how uneasy lay the head that wore the crown but also how treachery and cruelty were commonplace within the medieval royal court.
