First Published in 2004. The study of these ancient charities calls attention to extent of leprosy in England and the early foundations for strangers linked to the widespread practice of pilgrimage. This title aims to serve as an example and pattern for young and earnest students of real history, the history of ordinary human beings rather than of generals and of kings. This also acts as a book of reference for readers and writers, a treatise on the Mediaeval Hospitals of England.
