    Sir Francis Palgrave (1788–1861) was a distinguished English historian, solicitor and antiquarian, now considered to be the founder of the Public Record Office. After his death, Palgrave's son Sir Inglis Palgrave edited his Collected Historical Works, which focus mostly on the Anglo-Norman and Middle Ages. Originally published in 1922, this ninth volume of the Collected Historical Works contains the text of the first collection of Palgrave's reviews, articles and assorted notes, including articles that were previously unpublished. Editorial notes are supplied at the back of the volume. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in Palgrave's work or in pre-Norman, Norman and medieval English history.
