Henry V and the Earldom of Chester 1399-1422
A wide ranging study of the administration and finances of one of the most important lordships in the territories of the English crown- the earldom of Chester - based upon the surviving account rolls of the chamberlain and of the various manors held in direct ownership. The early fifteenth century is particularly significant, first because the usurpation of Henry IV led to the dismantling of Richard II's principality of Chester and to the creation of the future Henry V as earl as well as Prince of Wales and duke of Cornwall, and secondly because of the rebellions of Henry 'Hotspur' Percy and Owain Glyn Dwr boosted the importance of the earldom within the Lancastrian polity

Les rôles normands d’Henri V comme source pour l’histoire militaire (1417-1422)
En 2012, le professeur Schnerb a publié un important article sur les traités de reddition des villes et châteaux de Normandie tombés aux mains d’Henri V lors de sa conquête du duché entre 1417 et 1419. La principale source de ces traités était une nouvelle inscription à la chancellerie anglaise créée pour enregistrer les actes du roi Henry depuis son débarquement à l’embouchure de la rivière Touques le 1er août 1417 jusqu’à sa mort le 31 août 1422 – les Norman rolls (The National Archives série C 64). Ces dix rouleaux fournissent de nombreuses informations précieuses sur les aspects militaires de la conquête et de l’occupation, tels que les mouvements de troupes et l’établissement de garnisons. Ils constituent une source précieuse non seulement pour l’armée anglaise mais aussi pour les troupes françaises qui s’y opposaient. En outre, les Norman rolls apportent un éclairage important sur les relations entre l’occupant anglais et les civils du duché.In 2012 Professor Schnerb published an important article on treaties of surrender of towns and castles in Normandy which fell to Henry V during his conquest of the duchy between 1417 and 1419. The principal source for these treaties was a new Chancery enrolment created by the English government to record the acts of the king from the moment of his landing at the mouth of the River Touques on 1st August 1417 to his death on 31 August 1422 – the Norman rolls (The National Archives C 64). These rolls provide much valuable information on the military aspects of the conquest and occupation, such as the movement of troops and the establishment of garnisons. They are a valuable source not only for the English army but also for the French troops which opposed it. In addition, the Norman rolls shed much light on relations between the English occupier and the civilians in the duchy
