Description
"This book is an invitation to students of the period to consider this well-known event (or series of events) in English history as it actually happened. Beginning with an assumption that the Dissolution was neither an integral nor an essential part of the English Reformation, the author is convinced that the best way to discover how this great 'resumption' of the material resources of the regular clergy was effected is to pursue the story chronologically and thus rediscover what contemporaries knew was happening at each of several successive stages."--Back cover.
