England's king was captured in battle. His conqueror governed in the king's name while keeping the monarch under armed control.

The struggle known as the Second Barons' War was far more than a private conflict among ambitious nobles.

King Henry III had inherited a monarchy rescued from invasion and civil war. His reign brought stability, magnificent rebuilding at Westminster and the survival of royal government after the disasters of King John. It also brought foreign favourites, failed military expeditions, crushing financial commitments and repeated promises of reform that Henry later attempted to escape.
