Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from The Last Abbot of Glastonbury: A Tale of the Dissolution of the Monasteries The Author humbly ventures to offer the ninth of his series of original tales, illustrating Church History, to the public; encouraged by the favourable reception the previous volumes have found, In the tales, "Æmilius," "Evanus," and "The Camp on the Severn," he has endeavoured to describe the epoch of the Pagan persecutions, under the Roman Empire; in the "Three Chronicles of Æsccndune," successive epochs of Early English history; in the "Andredsweald," the Norman Conquest; in "Fairleigh Hall," the Great Rebellion; and in the present volume, one of the earliest of the series of events ordinarily grouped under the general phrase "The Reformation," the destruction of the Monasteries. It is many years since the writer was first attracted and yet saddened by the tragical story of the fate of the last Abbot of Glastonbury, and amongst the tales by which he was wont to enliven the Sunday evenings in a large School, this narrative found a foremost place, and excited very general interest, A generation ago, few English Churchmen cared to say a good word for the unhappy monks, who suffered so cruel a persecution at the hands of Henry the Eighth and his vicar-general, Thomas Cromwell.
