Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A History of Cumberland
As to this volume itself, it is an attempt to discharge the functions of the General Introduction to an Old fashioned county history in two or three quarto volumes. How far the writer has succeeded it is not for him to say. Many monastic Chartularies and other documents relating to Cumberland are still unprinted and unindexed. These the writer has done his best to consult, but until they are printed and indexed, he, or any other local writer, must expect in course of time to be set right on many points.
