For the first time a group of subjects had forced an English king to agree to a document that limited his powers by law and protected their rights.Dan Jones's elegant and authoritative narrative of the making and legacy of Magna Carta is amplified by profiles of the barons who secured it and a full text of the charter in both Latin and English.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
