RISHANGER, WILLIAM (c. 1250-c. 1312), .
English
  chronicler, made his profession as a
Benedictine
  at St Alban's abbey in 1271, of which he perhaps became the official chronicler. The most important of his writings is the Narratio de bellis apud
Lewes
  et Evesham. Though written many years afterwards and
drawn
  from other sources, it is a spirited
account
  of the barons' war. He is so
great
  an admirer of Simon de
Montfort
  that this
work
  has been called a hagiography. He is credited with the authorship of a chronicle covering the period 1259-1306; this has been disputed, but the
work
  is printed under his name by Riley. Another work of his, of not much importance, is a chronicle entitled Recapitulatis brevis de gestis domini Edwardi, &c. He is probably not the author of other works commonly attributed to him.
