"Wrested by rebellious barons from a very reluctant King John, Magna Carta set out a series of rights and duties that have been appealed to, ignored, suppressed, and argued about ever since. Here, David Carpenter's forceful new translation is accompanied by extensive commentary that sheds new light on this illustrious legal document."--Publisher's website.

That said, Carpenter organizes his work clearly enough that the book is eminently skimmable, and I know more about Magna Carta now than I did before I started (which was, admittedly, nothing). But considering how well he writes, and how interesting the story itself is, this is some dry-as-dust stuff. ( )
