| Summary | "The Growth of Parliament and the War with Scotland (1216-1307)" by W. D. Robieson is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This work explores the development of parliamentary governance in England alongside the significant military conflicts between England and Scotland during the specified period. The book is likely to interest readers seeking to understand the evolution of political structures and the implications of warfare on national governance. The opening of the work introduces the context of England's political landscape following King John's death, highlighting the events leading to the coronation of his son, Henry III. It details the actions of nobles and clergy in securing the young king's coronation and the subsequent challenges they faced, including the resistance from barons and foreign influence in England. The early excerpts also review key events such as the Battle of Lincoln and the political maneuverings surrounding the evolving conflict with Scotland, setting the stage for a deeper exploration of both parliamentary growth and military strife in the chapters to follow.
