The European Nobility, 1400-1800
An authoritative and accessible survey of the European nobility over four centuries.
Nobles and Nobility in Medieval Europe
The great strength of this collection is its wide range...a valuable work for anyone interested in the social aspects of the medieval nobility. CHOICE Articles on the origins and nature of 'nobility', its relationship with the late Roman world, its acquisition and exercise of power, its association with military obligation, and its transformation into a more or less willing instrument of royal government. Embracing regions as diverse as England (before and after the Norman Conquest), Italy, the Iberian peninsula, France, Norway, Poland, Portugal, and the Romano-German empire, it ranges over the whole medieval period from the fifth to the early sixteenth century. Contributors: STUART AIRLIE, MARTIN AURELL, T. N. BISSON, PAUL FOURACRE, PIOTR GORECKI, MARTIN H. JONES, STEINAR IMSEN, REGINE LE JAN, JANET N. NELSON, TIMOTHY A REUTER, JANE ROBERTS, MARIA JOAO VIOLANTE BRANCO, JENNIFER C. WARD
Nobility Ranch
In the dusty Texas panhandle of the 1880s, three sons of an English earl find their fortune and the women of their dreams. In this novel, one of the sons, Charles, tries to escape an arranged marriage to pampered Lady Cecily Thorndale, but she demonstrates such an adventurous spirit that he wonders if she is really his true love.
