  §13. Roger of Hoveden. IX. Latin Chroniclers from the Eleventh to the Thirteenth Centuries. Vol. 1. From the ...
Roger of Hoveden not only borrowed the so-called Benedict chronicle almost in its entirety, but made use of everything that he could find from the hands of the northern chronicles.
Roger was a man of affairs, and had exceptional opportunities for watching the development of public events.
Roger makes up to some extent for this reticence by the compass of his narrative; for the later portions of his chronicle include not only a survey of English affairs during the reign of Henry II and Richard I, but a fairly comprehensive history of Europe during the same period.

He was then in attendance upon Henry II., by whom he was sent from France on a secret mission to the lords of ROGERS, HENRY (1806—1877), English Nonconformist divine, was born at St Albans on the 18th of October 18o6, and was educated privately and by his father, a surgeon of considerable culture.
Rogers was meant to follow his father's profession, but the reading of John Howe turned him to theology, and after qualifying at Highbury College he accepted a call to the Congregational Church at Poole in 1829.
Rogers was widely read, and as a Christian apologist carried on the traditions of the 18th century as illustrated by Butler.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Roger of Hoveden
From the fact that his chronicle ends rather abruptly in 1201 it is inferred that he must have died or been stricken with some mortal disease in that year.
The one reliable edition of Hoveden is that prepared by STUBBS for the Rolls Series in four vols., 1868-71.
A full account of Hoveden and his works is, given in the preface to these vols.

 Battle of Gisors - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Battle of Gisors (September 27, 1198) was a skirmish fought in Courcelles-les-Gisors, Oise, Picardie, part of the on-going fighting between Richard I of England and Philip Augustus of France that lasted from 1194 to Richard's death in April 1199.
The earlier conflict restarted after the truce between the two kings— just long enough to see the harvest in, according to the chronicler Roger of Hoveden— expired.
Allegedly, before Gisors Richard coined, as countersign, the parole of the day to tell friend from foe, "Dieu et Mon Droit", a denial of his fealty to the King of France, that he owed his kingdom— and Normandy, Aquitaine and Anjou— to god and his right alone.

This chronicle by Hoveden is mostly compiled from other sources, but remains a valuable document of English history.
It extends from 1148 to 1201; the period from 1192-1201 is wholly Hoveden's work.
Hoveden served in the court of Henry II; it is likely that he commenced writing his chronicle after the king's death.

For a brief period about the middle of the twelfth century there was, in Northumbria as elsewhere, a curious break in the activity of the chroniclers.
But, in the next generation, two writers who worthily uphold the traditions of the northern school appear in William of Newburgh and Roger of Hoveden.
William confines himself to his own times; but Roger attempts a comprehensive history of several centuries, and, gathering his materials from the best available authorities, gives us what Stubbs calls “the full harvest of the labours of the Northumbrian historians.”

Roger of Hoveden was a royal clerk who compiled a History of England in the early years of the thirteenth century.
As a royal clerk he was well-placed to gather information from members of the royal court, and he also included many documents, especially letters, into his history.
His son, however, proceeded with the body of his father to the abbey of Fontevraud, and there buried him in the choir of the Nuns, and thus it was that he was "among the veiled women as one wearing the veil."

 Roger of Hoveden on Becket
I have condensed his chronicle for the years 1154 - 1190, presenting his account of the disputes between Becket and the king, the archbishop's death and the subsequent investigation by the pope into Henry's responsibility in the murder.
Note that Roger began the year on Christmas Day, so for him, Becket's murder, which occurred on 29 December 1170, occurred in the early days of the year 1171, so his account of the murder occurs under the entry for that year.
When this could be in nowise effected, the king sent John of Oxford and Geoffrey Riddel, his clerks, to pope Alexander, requesting him to give the legateship of the whole of England to Roger, the archbishop of York, that so through his means he might be able to confound the archbishop of Canterbury.

These letters, addressed to parents, wives, children, vassals, or friends, are valuable alike for the facts which they contain and for the revelation they give of the spirit and motives of the crusaders.
A considerable collection of the letters, in English translation, may be found in Roger de Hoveden's Annals of English History, Roger of Wendover's Flowers of History, and Matthew Paris's English History (all in the Bohn Library); also in Michaud's History of the Crusades, Vol.
