Reviews

Nicholas Orme's clear, engaging prose deals with a full range of topics.The book will surely remain a standard source of reference for religion in medieval Cornwall, and is particularly useful for the religious houses.
*JOURNAL OF ECCLESIASTICAL HISTORY*

This is a handsomely produced volume, which holds much of interest for its readers.
*SOUTHERN HISTORY*

[O]f usual VCH exceptional quality.The achievement of this book is that it makes sense of a very complicated situation in which myth or ease of near myth was very relevant to perceived significance, and it does that convincingly and authoritatively.
*JOURNAL OF MEDIEVAL ARCHAEOLOGY*

[W]eighty and erudite...The introduction of this exciting 'work in progress' is a further badge of this volume's landmark status.
*THE ANTIQUARIES JOURNAL*

As a piece of book production it is well done, with good binding and typesetting. The maps and illustrations are well done. [...] We are grateful for this book and look forward to further volumes.
*CORNISH BANNER*
