The inside story of how monks and canons were treated and behaved - or sometimes misbehaved. Told by extracts from a manuscript of 1295. A rare manuscript of 1425 written in Kenilworth Priory adds special relevance.
A visit to any ruined monastery is enlivened and given extra meaning by knowing what really went on in the Chapter House, the Dormitory, the Infirmary and other ruined apartments.
The book concludes with a unique 'Interview' with a Prior of 1425!
