The major problem faced by Alfonso VI in the roughly two months that his army and court lay before Toledo prior to his formal entry into the city on May 25, 1085, was that of supply. libro.uca.edu /alfonso6/alfonso9.htm   (10251 words)

Publisher description for Library of Congress control number 87003502 This volume, the first critical history of the reign of Alfonso VI, reveals his influence to have been comparable to that of the other great rulers of the eleventh century--William the Conqueror, Robert Guiscard, and the Emperor Henry IV of Germany. The author has drawn together all the scattered official documents of this monarch to construct a reliable record of his conquests, his government, and his relations with both Cluny and Rome in the last third of the eleventh century and the first decade of the twelfth. Historians of the Spanish Reconquista, of the medieval church, and of institutional and social life will find it an invaluable commentary on the development of those phenomena during a peculiarly fertile reign, while the citations of thousands of royal and private documents will furnish a guide without parallel to more specialized studies in those areas. www.loc.gov /catdir/description/prin031/87003502.html   (236 words)
