Reader's note

An eye-catching 1952 edition of The Last Abbot of Glastonbury by A.D. Crake. This is a tale of the dissolution of the monasteries with illustrations by G.E. Kruger Gray. The prologue begins: 'It is a cold wintry night in the year 1524, the fifteenth of the high and mighty Lord Henry, Eighth of that name, 'by the grace of God King of Great Britain, France and Ireland,' as heralds vainly style him. All day long the clouds have been hanging over the forest of Avalon, heavy and dull as lead, and now towards eventide they descend in snow; it is dark everywhere, but darkest in the depths of the sombre wood, amidst the tangled copse, beneath the bare branches of the huge oaks'. This descriptive writing perfectly sets the scene; read on in this vintage edition.
