The questions of reliability of evidence and William's sources are well addressed in Thomson and Winterbottom's commentary; there are few stones in the Gesta Regum which are left unturned and the critical approach taken in this volume reflects the weight of recent scholarship ... Thomson and Winterbottom have made great strides towards a scholarly understanding of William of Malmesbury's life and work.
