Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Life and Times of Nicholas Ferrar Little excuse is needed for a fresh book upon Nicholas Ferrar. Since 1855, when Professor J. E. B. Mayor published his Two Lives, only two books of any note have appeared dealing with the subject, those by Miss Carter and by Miss Cruwys Sharland. The former is for the most part a connected narrative based upon Professor Mayor´s work, though there are some additions of value as an outcome of the writer´s own research; but dates are sometimes incorrectly given (some of these, no doubt, are printer´s errors), and the story of the connection of the Ferrars with the Virginia Company is very imperfectly set forth. Miss Cruwys Sharland gives a transcript of the famous Story Books, which is of great interest. But some valuable material still remains unused. In 1900 the Rev. Mackreth Noble read a careful paper on the connection between the Knights Templars and Little Gidding before the British Archæological Association.
