For Edward the Second we have three important contemporaries: Thomas de la More, Trokelowe's Annals, and the life by a monk of Malmesbury printed by Hearne. The sympathies of the first are with the King, those of the last two with the Barons. Murimuth's short Chronicle is also contemporary. John Barbour's "Bruce," the great legendary storehouse for his hero's adventures, is historically worthless.
Murimuth's adoption of Michaelmas day as the beginning of the year has often confused those who have imitated him. It ends in 1356 with an excellent account of the battle of Poitiers.
