William Rishanger (1250?–1312?)
Rishanger, William. An English monk of St. Alban’s, and chronicler; born about 1250; died about 1312. His most important writing is the ‘Narratio de Bellis apud Lewes et Evesham’ (Account of the Fights at Lewes and Evesham), with an autobiographical sketch forming part of the manuscript. It extends from 1258 to 1267, and gives with vigor, picturesque detail, and political insight, an excellent account of the barons’ wars.
