Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Memorials of the Abbey of St. Mary of Fountains
No adequate attempt has yet been made to gratify enquiry, from original records, into the long and varied train of circumstances by which that position was acquired and main tained - the sources, management, and application of its revenues -the personal history of its more eminent members - the social results which it developed beyond its walls - or into the many topics and subjects involved in its history, of general interest and application.
