I feel this is a long shot - and I have not yet begun to seek sources - but I am seeking your help to find reliable historical accounts (not primary sources that I will have no access to for verification thanks) about how Edward I Kind of England became a partner with the money lenders in England in the late 14th Century. A quick look on The Internet (because, c'mon, it's Wikipedia/Google) surprisingly yields no information about something my family has "known" all my life. And what a story it is!
I am left to now flip through Amazon's library catalogue. If I had an English language reference librarian, I would stop by the English library for a look at a book. But I am in Poland. So, obviously... it's not like The Internet Poland.
If anyone can point me towards a book or a credible online source supported by a credible historical society, I would appreciate it.
