The Anglo-Norman Metrical Chronicle of Geoffrey Gaimar is a historical work written by Geoffrey Gaimar in the 12th century. The book is written in Anglo-Norman French and recounts the history of Britain from the time of its mythical founding by Brutus to the reign of King Stephen in the 12th century. The book is divided into three parts, each focusing on a different period of British history. The first part covers the legendary period of British history, while the second part covers the Anglo-Saxon period. The third part covers the Norman Conquest and the reigns of the Norman kings. The book is written in verse and is considered one of the earliest examples of historical writing in the French language. The 1850 edition of the book includes an introduction and notes by Thomas Wright, a prominent historian and scholar of medieval literature. The book is a valuable resource for historians and scholars interested in the history of Britain and the development of the French language.Printed For The First Time Entirely From The Manuscript In The British Museum.
