In addition, it includescommentary on many contemporaneous issues and concerns, notably about elections, successions, and deaths of bishops and abbots in Normandy and England, but also about events in France, the Empire, and the crusader kingdom in Palestine. | The Chronography Of Robert Of Torigni by Thomas N.
