Historia Anglia
216–21. A detailed secondary account of the battle is to be found in H.L. Cannon, ‘The Battle of Sandwich and Eustace the Monk’,
EHR
, 27, 1912. More briefly, see Norgate,
Minority
, 50–4; I follow a different chronology to Norgate who places the initial English defeat on the day of battle, instead of in the previous weeks.

   HWM, 363–5. The return to full allegiance of the Cinque ports was essential in preparing the English fleet. For medieval naval matters, see: N.A.M. Rodger,

594
   The hunting analogy is usually the one accepted. However, in
The History of William Marshal
, from which this phrase comes (370–1), ‘hart’ is translated as ‘noose’. Here it is feminine. In English, ‘hart’ usually refers to a male deer, especially a stag, ‘Noose’ in Old French is a masculine noun. The inconsistencies of Old French apply to gender as much as to any aspect of its variable language.

IBLIOGRAPHY

Please note that the excellent and authoritative three-volume reference work
Oxford Encyclopedia of Medieval Warfare and Military Technology
edited by Clifford J. Rogers (Oxford, 2010) is too comprehensive to list separately all the articles relevant to this book, excepting the indulgence of my own germane entries. As a general rule in the bibliography, unlike in the endnotes, articles are not cited separately when they appear in volumes of collected papers of the authors’ works.

Place of publication is London unless otherwise stated.
