King John and Magna Carta
Was King John as bad as he has been portrayed in contrast to his brother Richard, or did he simply get a bad press? Why did John quarrel with the Pope only later to become his vassal? What led to the barons' rebellion and the invasion by the French? How did England come to have a King Louis I? What was Magna Carta and why is it still seen as important?
