This catastrophe was one of many in a disastrous career marked by indolence, vengefulness, vacillation in relationships with France, deranged policies at home, and constitutional wrangling, ultimately brought to an end by a minor insurgency led by his vindictive wife and her paramour, a disaffected baron.King Edward the SecondBIOGRAPHY & AUTOBIOGRAPHY / RoyaltybisacshGreat BritainHistoryEdward II, 1307-1327Great BritainHistoryEdward III, 1327-1377Great BritainKings and rulersBiographyBIOGRAPHY & AUTOBIOGRAPHY / Royalty.942.03/6/092BHaines Roy Martin569055MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910782080803321King Edward II1549984UNINA
