John de Stratford, Bishop of Winchester, 1323-1333, and Archbishop of Canterbury, 1333-48, was one of the most significant English prelates of the first half of the fourteenth century. He was appointed to Winchester by the Pope against the will of King Edward II, was later involved in the deposition of that monarch and also fell out with Edward III while chancellor for his alleged failure to provide adequate support for the King's campaign in Flanders in 1340. His register includes entries reflecting the political engagement of the papacy as well as the affairs of church and state in England and, in particular, church and social life across Surrey and Hampshire. The editor of this two volume edition is Professor Roy Haines, biographer of both Stratford and Edward II, and author of many notable works on the medieval church.
