This volume completes the edition of the two earliest manuscript
Chapter Act books of Westminster Abbey, which is now the first
cathedral or collegiate church to have all its Chapter Acts fully
in print from the Reformation to the Civil War. It records the
formal decisions of the Abbey's governing authority, many involving
grants of office and leases of the Abbey's large and
widely-scattered estate, principally in the midlands and the
south-east, and especially in Westminster itself. A full
introduction brings out the value of the documents in placing the
Abbey in the tumultuous history of the church under James I and
Charles I.
