Geoffrey of Beaulieu
text:
Geoffrey of Beaulieu, from Évreux in Normandy, was a French friar and biographer. From a noble family, Geoffrey was a friar of the Dominican Order. Nothing is known of his early life. He became the confessor of Louis IX of France, and inspired such lasting confidence, that, finding himself head of the clergy surrounding the king, he could, better than anyone, gather the necessary material to become his royal master's historian. Geoffrey accompanied King Louis IX on crusades to Tunis and Egypt. T
