The Chronicles of Enguerrand de Monstrelet, one of the major eyewitness-style narrative sources for the closing era of the Hundred Years’ War and the violent struggle between the houses of Burgundy and Orléans. Monstrelet’s chronicle continues the tradition of Jean Froissart and records warfare, political intrigue, royal conflict, the English occupation of Paris and Normandy, shifting alliances, battles, executions, and the turbulent struggle for power in fifteenth-century Europe. The work begins where Froissart’s chronicle ends and extends into the period leading toward Philippe de Commynes, making it an important bridge between two of the great medieval chroniclers.
