The Troubled Reign of King Stephen 1135-1154 by John T. Appleby published by B N, 1995 from the dustjacket: Despite the popularity of King Stephen at the commencement of his reign, his easygoing ways and his clemency in a brutal age made him unsuited to deal out the harsh measures that would have put an early end to the activities of his rebellious barons.
