William Henry Summers
The Lollards of the Chiltern Hills is a historical book written by William Henry Summers and published in 1906. The book provides a detailed account of the Lollard movement in England during the Middle Ages, with a particular focus on the Chiltern Hills region. The Lollards were a group of religious dissenters who challenged the teachings and practices of the Catholic Church, and sought to reform the Church from within. The book explores the origins of the Lollard movement, their beliefs and practices, and the persecution they faced from the Church and the state. It also provides a glimpse into the social and political context of the time, and how the Lollard movement was shaped by the events and trends of the period. The author draws on a range of primary sources, including court records, letters, and chronicles, to provide a comprehensive and engaging account of this important chapter in English history. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of religious dissent, the Middle Ages, and the social and political context of medieval England.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
