Thank you for this. I know essentially nothing about English history; the only thing I knew of King John was AA Milne's assessment that he was "not a good man". So this looks to be a valuable prospective addition to my reading list.
We actually read this as one of the required books for my course on Medieval Europe last fall, and I quite enjoyed it -- definitely a thorough take on a king history tends to make one-sided.
