The book ''Life of Simon De Montfort: Earl of Leicester'' by Mandell Creighton, published in 1902, is a comprehensive biography of Simon De Montfort, a prominent figure in English history. De Montfort was a nobleman who lived in the 13th century and played a significant role in the politics and military conflicts of his time. The book covers De Montfort’s life from his birth in France in 1208 to his death in battle in 1265. It traces his rise to power through his marriage to Eleanor, sister of King Henry III, and his involvement in the Barons’ War, a conflict between the king and his barons over issues of governance and taxation. Creighton provides a detailed account of De Montfort’s military campaigns, including his victory at the Battle of Lewes in 1264, which established him as the de facto ruler of England. The book also explores De Montfort’s political and religious beliefs, which were influenced by his devotion to the Catholic Church and his opposition to the king’s policies.Overall, ''Life of Simon De Montfort: Earl of Leicester'' is a well-researched and engaging biography that sheds light on an important period in English history and the life of a fascinating historical figure.This Book Is In English.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
