Abridgement of records in the Tower of London, c 1657
Scope and Contents
An abridgement of the records in the Tower of London from the time of King Edward II to that of King Richard III, and of all the parliaments held in each king's reign. The manuscript appears to have been revised for the press, but the printed copy, edited by William Prynne in the name of Sir Robert Cotton and published in London, 1657, does not correspond exactly.
