Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Life and Times of Bishop Challoner, Vol. 1 of 2: 1691-1781 The lengthy Introduction to this book might, perhaps, have dispensed with any further Preface; but, had it done so, no opportunity would have been afforded me of acknowledging the generous help which has been freely rendered, and without which the work could not have been written. From the long list of names that follows it will be seen how numerous were the favours sought, how ungrudging the help afforded. When, some twelve years ago, I wrote a short account of Bishop Challoner for the Biographical Series issued by the Catholic Truth Society, that pamphlet was compiled entirely from published sources of information, accessible to all, especially the biographies written by Challoner´s contemporaries, Bishop Milner, the Rev. James Barnard and Charles Butler, K.C. But the meagre character of these showed how desirable it was that a thorough examination of the unpublished documents, relating to his life and times, should be made, and a search for new materials instituted. The results of this examination and search are embodied in these volumes, though it has proved impossible to include within their limits the whole mass of material which has accumulated in my hands. This material has been drawn from very varied sources, among which the official papers of the Vicars Apostolic naturally are of chief importance.
