According to the British Museum slave Graesse, and others, Ralph Gobion, or Gubiun (died 1151) Abbot of S. Albans, wrote this Latin prose history in five books of Philip and Alexander, extracted from ancient and medieval writers. Some say that it was the work of Geoffrey or Walter Hemlington, monk of St. Albans, who dedicated the work to Ralph.
