Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Feudal Manuals of English History: A Series of Popular Sketches of Our National History, Compiled at Different Periods, From the Thirteenth Century to the Fifteenth, Use the Use Feudal Gentry and Nobility The following pages contain a series of examples of a class of documents which, have hitherto attracted little attention among antiquaries. They consist of rolls of vellum, on which was written with great care, in bold elegant handwriting, a synopsis of English history, from the earliest period to the time at which they were written. They are usually illustrated with drawings, sometimes illuminated, of the kings and their queens and children, whence they have been spoken of as genealogical rolls of the royal family; but with a little consideration we may understand their true character. The old feudal gentleman, in his manor-house with his family and guests, had, no doubt, frequent need of some such book of reference on questions connected with the history of his country; and, indeed, he required such popular historical manuals as these for the instruction of his children.
