In particular, it examines the extent to which the Angevins ruled Brittany directly, or delegated authority either to native dukes or royal ministers, and shows that in this respect the nature of Angevin rule changed and evolved over the period."--Jacket Bibliography Includes bibliographical references (pages 216-236) and index Notes English Print version record Subject Anjou, House of.
