Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Rise and Progress of the English Commonwealth, Vol. 1 of 2: Anglo-Saxon Period; Containing the Anglo-Saxon Policy, and the Institutions Arising Out of Laws and Usages Which Prevailed Before the Conquest
So many works of deserved and established reputation, treating upon the antiquities of the Constitution, are already before the public, that some apology seems needed for adding another to their number. I must therefore excuse myself by the observation, that an attempt is here made, however imperfectly, to supply a chasm in our historical literature.
