Excerpt from History of the Abbey of St. AlbanAt the risk of some infringement of the continuity of history, it has seemed best to emphasize the break caused by the death of each abbot, not because the end of an abbot's rule, like the termination of a king's reign, is a convenient point at which to conclude a chapter, but because the history of a Benedictine House is primarily a resultant of the various impulses supplied by the personalities of those individuals who guided its destinies.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
