Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Monumental Brasses The object of this handbook is to enable the explorer of churches, young or old, clerical or lay, to more fully appreciate the true value of those ancient brazen memorials which they so frequently see adorning pavement or wall. There are probably no objects of antiquarian interest which so well repay any attention which may be devoted to them, and the ease with which a valuable collection of rubbings can be made has induced great numbers of persons to provide themselves with paper and heelball, and apply their energies to the church floor. To such persons this book is more particularly addressed, in the hope that it will prove a useful and handy guide to the pursuit of what the author has found to be a most fascinating branch of the vast tree of archaeology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Monumental Brasses of Gloucestershire Scattered over the county of Gloucester, sometimes in out-of-the-way places, are still to be found a goodly number of those very interesting memorials called Monumental Brasses. These brasses are worthy of more than a passing notice, they furnish us with information most valuable to the historian, both general and local, and give many details of much importance to the herald, genealogist and antiquary. To the general reader they are equally interesting, since they are richly suggestive, and full of the touching pathos of the past. They clearly mark the successive steps of our nations progress - they tell of those stern and terrible times of strife and glory through which England has passed - they bear silent witness to those grand and far-reaching changes which have made our country what it is - and they give an insight into the currents of thought and feeling which deeply moved our forefathers. Gloucestershire contains more than eighty of these incised memorials, embracing a period of several centuries. In one place we have the valorous knight clad in glittering coat of steel - in another a tonsured ecclesiastic in vestments rich and elaborate - then the gentlewoman in the costume peculiar to her time - but whether knight, or priest, or lady fair, each is of importance in giving with remarkable fidelity a life-like picture of the military, sacerdotal, and domestic life of bygone times. One cannot but deeply regret that these unobtrusive memorials have suffered much mutilation and spoliation at the hands of the thief and the religious fanatic, as well as from the culpable neglect of their lawful custodians.
