"The object of this book is to supply within a convenient compass many documents which are of the greatest value to English history, but must hitherto have been sought for in bulky volumes not very accessible to the general reader.' The author, an able and enlightened antiquarian, says the London Law Magazine, has fully attained this object and produced a very valuable book. They particularly recommend it to their foreign friends who have commissioned them to procure publications of the sort.
