The History of the Tyrants of Sicily by the so-called Hugo Falcandus is a key source for the history of the medieval kingdom of Sicily. It describes the events of the reign of King William I The Bad (1154-66) and the minority of his son, William II (1166-89) up to the spring of 1169. These were years of crisis and the History presents a vivid and compelling (though savagely biased) picture of royal tyranny, rebellion and factional dispute at court.
