History Rocks: Magna Carta
Publisher Description
History books tell us that, on 15th June 1215, in a meadow near Runnymede, King John signed the 'Magna Carta'. And some of them suggest that, from the beginning, Magna Carta guarded the rights of the common person.
WRONG! WRONG! WRONG! John didn't sign anything and it was yet called 'Magna Carta'. This book sets the record straight, accompanied by brilliant drawings and graphics that tell you all about life in medieval England, why King John was forced to make peace with his barons and how the agreement at Runnymede in 1215 has impacted history.
