Froissart's chronicles, covering 1322 to 1400, serve as a vital contemporary source for the Hundred Years' War, detailing significant events like the Campaign of Crecy and the Battle of Poitiers. Initially relying on Jean Lebel's accounts, Froissart later incorporated his own observations and eyewitness testimonies. This 1910 edition features selections from an early translation by Sir John Bourchier, with editorial comments in footnotes for clarity, alongside definitions of obscure terms and a comprehensive index for easier navigation.
