Recently there has been more emphasis on the personalities involved in Edward II's reign rather than constitutional, administrative and particularly ecclesiastical matters. By contrast, this book offers an analysis of the role played by Adam Orleton, promoted successively Bishop of Hereford, Worcester and Winchester by a pope who paid no attention to the expostulations of the government at home.
