In 1277 the recently crowned king of England Edward I invaded Wales his army large for the time was none the less modest by his later standards Most of his countrymen had not been on active service outside the realm for twenty years and more if at all yet over the course of the following four decades up to the battle of Bannockburn in 1314 they would be called upon to fight in four different theatres of war in Wales Gascony Flanders and Scotland Although the identities of many of the men who fought in these wars particularly those of the thousands of peasant foot soldiers will never be known the names of a large proportion of the menatarms can be located in the records of central government This book utilises these sources payrolls horse inventories wardrobe books and others to examine the military careers and activities of these menatarms focusing on five main themes mobilisation military command service patterns among the gentry retinues and their composition and feudal service

Find tips, reviews, and features on Knights and Warhorses Military Service sold for 24 $ , available in the Books & Magazines category; this product belongs to and is sold by Abebooks.com.
The mounted armoured knight is one of the most potent symbols of medieval civilisation a persistent image leaping out from the folios of illuminated manuscripts and the texts of the chroniclers of chivalry For much of the middle ages the armoured warhorse was what defined a manatarms at muster and what set him apart as a member of the military class However despite the status of the knightly warrior in medieval society the military service of the later medieval English aristocracy remains an unaccountably neglected subject while the warhorse itself has never attracted a major study based upon archival sources This book seeks to open up what are then effectively new fields of researchAndrew Ayton focuses in particular on the horse inventories documents which offer detailed lists of menatarms and their appraised warhorses They are of importance as a guide to the identities status and attitudes of menatarms from wealthy earls to humble esquires and few records of military service are as reliable or as complete But the unique value of these inventories lies in their association of warhorse and manatarms for a horses valuation and other attributes can be used as a measure of its owners social and military statusDr Ayton is primarily concerned with the inventories and related records for Edward IIIs reign a period which witnessed significant changes in the organisation of the English fighting machine the documents produced during this period of military revolution cast valuable light on the character and attitudes of the aristocratic military community at a time when their traditional role was in the course of reevaluationAttention is also given to the administrative mechanisms and other circumstances involved in the generation of the inventories and also to the place of horse appraisal in the package of payments and benefits the terms of service offered to menatarms serving for the kings pay
