[edit] more detail

Having appropriated the rebels cause, the military defeat of Louis came soon after and ended with the signing of the Treaty of Lambeth in 1217

This part needs more detail that I do not know. How did the rebel barons respond to the royalists crowning of Henry and how did this affect the military defeat of Louis? Stbalbach 09:59, 25 Sep 2004 (UTC)

I have added two references in the end of the article to replace the citation need, but they don't appear to show on the page. The code and the citations are there though. Peharps a more experienced wikipedian could correct this Matthieu 16:53, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

Done. You put this in at the bottom of the page (without the 'nowiki'), for future reference: Neddyseagoon - talk 17:07, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Waverley ironic quote

The Norman invasion had been 150 years prior, and the relationship between England and France is revealed by the annals of Waverley, in a passage that would seem bizarre today, that the French Prince was asked to invade England in order to "prevent the realm being pillaged by aliens".

I dont understand what this quote means, the relationship is not revealed by the quote (for me anyway). Can we expand further, or is it a trivia asside that takes away from the narrative? Stbalbach 18:48, 13 November 2005 (UTC)

yes it's strange, as it would imply that the Angevin were stranger to England (which was true, just as the Norman were too) but not the king of France... it does not make much sense to me really
