- This is the first monograph dedicated to nineteenth-century historian E.A. Freeman. It draws on a range of archival sources, including Freeman’s personal journals, annotated drafts of his major works, and correspondence with leading contemporaries including W.E. Gladstone, William Stubbs, and Friedrich Max Muller. These materials provide new insights into Freeman’s most famous work, The History of the Norman Conquest (1867-1879). Freeman’s lesser known volumes are also recovered and analysed. Emphasising the significance of race, empire, and Islam in Freeman’s output, Randall’s book makes a significant contribution to understandings of key issues which preoccupied late Victorian intellectuals and public moralists.
