We are developing a comprehensive bibliography which will aim to deal with all aspects of Magna Carta, its origins, meaning, and reinterpretation and significance over the centuries.

Our intermediate bibliography includes books, articles and online resources accessible to those with a general interest in English history from the Middle Ages onwards but who lack a specialist expertise in the field.
 

Our Advanced bibliography – Click Here
