Sir Thomas Duffus Hardy (1804-78) was Deputy Keeper of the Public
Record Office. He was closely involved with the Rolls Series of
publications of medieval manuscripts in public ownership, of which
this catalogue (consisting of three volumes in four parts) forms
part. His stated aim was to list 'all the known sources, printed or
unprinted, of English history'. Each item is located and described
and where Hardy has examined the original, the first and last lines
are given. Where known, the author's life is briefly outlined. The
third volume, published in 1871, provides historical sources
ranging from 1200 (the first full year of King John's reign) to the
death of Edward II in 1327. This volume features 20 plates
illustrating some of the types of manuscripts catalogued. A fourth
volume, left uncompleted at Hardy's death, was to have continued
the catalogue to the end of Henry VII's reign (1509).
