‘This is the first authoritative English translation of Hariulf’s Latin chronicle. With an expert historical introduction and annotation the distinguished medievalist Kathleen Thompson has opened up a neglected historical narrative from Northern France for a wider audience. The result is a scholarly triumph.’ — Professor Elisabeth van Houts FBA, Emmanuel College, Cambridge 'Hariulf's History of St Riquier is a key source for our understanding of Europe’s medieval past. This highly accessible English translation with an authoritative introduction deserves a prominent spot on medievalists’ bookshelves and student reading lists alike. A brilliant achievement and an excellent service to historical scholarship.' — Professor Dr Benjamin Pohl, University of Bristol -- .
