First published in 1910, this book was written to appeal to the
increasing body of readers who wish to get at the real Middle Ages;
who, however impatient of mere dissertations and discussions, are
glad to study genuine human documents, and to check the
generalizations of historians by reference to first-hand facts. The
Author, therefore, attempted to compile a catena of such documents,
each more or less complete in itself, but mostly too long for full
quotation by historians. The records here printed represent thirty
years' study among all kinds of medieval writings, and could
scarcely be outdone in this respect but by scholars who have better
work to do. They have been chosen as specially characteristic of
the period, and as appealing also to that deeper humanity which is
common to all minds in all periods.
