A historical survey, well illustrated, from 312 to 1204. The 16 essays are written by (e.g.) David Knowles on the Rule of St Benedict ; Heer himself on "A Crown for Charlemagne" and "Battle at the Lechfeld" ; and Regine Pernoud on "Abelard in Paris". No specific entry in index for "pilgrimage", but references to Canterbury, Chartres, Jerusalem and also Asian civilizations.
Donated by Peter Fitzgerald.
