Freeman’s Conquest volume praised as standard English history
The review lauds Freeman’s second volume for its use of primary sources and sharp critical method. It highlights his handling of chroniclers, analysis of Eadward the Confessor, and the parallel framing of London and Paris. The piece notes the author’s balance between sources and his plan to cover up to William and the Conquest.
