Inhaltsangabe
Excerpt from Royal and Other Historical Letters Illustrative of the Reign of Henry III<br/><br/>The prwent volume of letters differs from its predecessor in one or two respects. It was found, when the period of the barons' wars came to be examined in detail, that to carry out in full the plan of the first volume was impracticable. To have printed from the Close and Patent Rolls every unpublished letter of interest which bore on the events referred to in the Royal Letters would have extended the work altogether beyond the limits contemplated. Moreover, it would not have been, when done, a really complete work, for many entries on the Rolls, which are not properly letters, are not less im~ portant, nor less deserving of publication. This is espe cially true of the Patent Roll of 49 Hen. III. To have made any adequate extracts from this roll alone would have occupied more than fifty pages; and after all, the extracts would only have left the feeling that the roll should be printed in full It has, therefore, been left untouch ed, and, generally, through out the period of the actual war of the barons the extracts have been made with a very scanty hand, compared with the materials available. They must evidently be dealt with at some time on a scale altogether larger than the plan of this work allows. The collection of bulls which appeared in the Appendix to the first volume has been discontinued. It has been considered irrelevant and uninteresting, and has therefore been withdrawn to give room for a larger selection of letters. Historically, the present volume needs but little preface. The period to which it relates is far better known to the majority of historical students than that embraced by the first volume of the work, and is marked by more salient and interesting events.
