Chronicles of Engeurrand de Monstrelet

Chronicles of Engeurrand de Monstrelet
Similar in many respects to Froissart's chronicles, Monstrelet's work, clearly in the same tradition and bearing the same pitfalls, he chronicles the struggle between the Dukes of Orleans and the Dukes of Burgundy from 1400 - 1485, in the process becoming a valuable recorder of pas d'armes and emprises in France during the 15th century. Monstrelet is generally hard to find, the only English translation I have found being produced by EETS.
