Synopsis
This book presents a comprehensive collection and archival exploration of many memorial inscriptions that once adorned the exteriors of the churches in the City of London. These inscriptions are transcripts of the ones that were moved inside the churches to make room for structural changes. Over time, many of them were entirely lost, and the author has painstakingly recorded these historic markers to prevent further loss to posterity. The work provides a rare glimpse into the lives and deaths of London's citizens, rich and poor, over several centuries. The inscriptions reveal poignant stories of tragedy and loss, provide a rich vein of genealogical information, and give a fascinating insight into religious, social, and economic life in the City of London from the sixteenth century onwards.
