Originally published in 1908, this study documents the history of the library at Westminster Abbey from 1060 to 1660. The original library was dispersed during the Reformation, and its successor destroyed by a fire in 1694, but the distinguished authors' research on the surviving sources reconstructs a surprisingly detailed account.
