Immerse yourself in the rich tapestry of London's history from the 11th to the 15th century with 'A Chronicle of London'. Transcribed from two manuscripts housed in the British Museum, this fifteenth-century English chronicle offers a fascinating glimpse into the city's past. Delve into the reigns of Henry IV, V, and VI, as the writer, contemporaneous with those times, presents remarkable insights and lesser-known details. The meticulous record begins each year with the election of Lord Mayors and Sheriffs, providing a unique perspective on London's governance. Although the author remains anonymous, their dedication to capturing the spirit of the metropolis makes this chronicle a valuable addition to the history of both London and England.
