Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The County Palatine of Durham, Vol. 7: A Study in Constitutional History The explanation of the object and scope of the present study contained in the first chapter leaves very little to be said by way of preface. Yet, it may not be amiss to point out that the book rests entirely upon first-hand sources of information which, for the most part, are still inedited. I have tried at every point to give scholars the readiest means of referring to the original authorities, and hope that the labor devoted to proof-reading and verification will not have been entirely fruitless. There remains only the pleasant duty of acknowledging obligations. My friend and master Professor Charles Gross of Harvard has from the beginning of my work given me the benefit of his learning and wisdom with unfailing generosity and patience. My appreciation of his help I can not easily express; if he finds anything worthy in my book he will know that his efforts have not been wholly in vain. Professor Maitland has laid under a heavy obligation all those who work at the early history of England. But I most gratefully acknowledge a very special indebtedness to him for written and spoken words that have cast light on dark places and given the clue to more than one baffling problem. To the officials of the Public Record Office, and especially to Mr. Hubert Hall, I beg to offer my sincere thanks for valuable assistance and unvarying courtesy.
