Written by Ernest Harold Pearce, this work provides a detailed account of Cobham's tenure during a politically and socially turbulent period in English history. By drawing extensively from the Bishop's own official register, the author offers readers an intimate look at the daily operations, legal challenges, and pastoral responsibilities associated with a medieval diocese.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book explores Cobham's background, his academic achievements at the universities of Oxford and Paris, and his rise within the church hierarchy before his appointment to the see of Worcester. Beyond mere biography, the narrative serves as a vital resource for understanding the relationship between the English Church and the Crown during the reign of Edward II. This scholarly examination illuminates the complexities of medieval governance, the intricacies of canon law, and the personal character of a man often remembered for his integrity and devotion to his office. It is an essential volume for historians of the Middle Ages, students of ecclesiastical history, and those interested in the development of the English episcopate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
