The Liber de compositione castri Ambaziae et ipsius dominorum gesta (Book about the Construction of the Castle of Amboise and the Deeds of Its Lords) is an anonymous 12th-century Latin chronicle of the early history of the lords and castle of Amboise. It begins with an account of Touraine and its historical narrative proceeds from Julius Caesar (died 44 BC) down to Louis VII (AD 1137–1180).[1]
