Volume II (of V) only. xii, 298pp. Maroon cloth-covered boards with gilt motif on upper panel, gilt lettering on spine. 4to. Cloth mildly marked, rubbed and rounded at corners and ends of sunned spine. Text block edges a little darkened and lightly spotted. Some mild tanning on endpapers else internally neat, clean, bright and tight.

A substantial compendium of biographical and historical information regarding the knights at the court of Edward I in the 13th Century, collected by Rev Charles Moor from various notices and sources. This volume, F to K, includes important families such as the Greys and the Haverings, others well known to history and the more obscure and less recorded. A glance through shows how a large number of men rose gradually from inconspicuous origins to positions of consequence – and indeed the compiler argues that knighthood was ‘almost more difficult to avoid than obtain’.
