Ampleforth: the story of St Laurence's Abbey and College
by Fr Anselm Cramer OSB. St Laurence Papers V
Hardback, 223 pp, 80 b/w photographs. £12

Fr Cuthbert Almond's A History of Ampleforth Abbey (1903) and McCann & Cary-Elwes, Ampleforth and its Origins (1952) have both been unobtainable for years. Ampleforth's present Archivist has written a new book. It covers the twentieth century as well as earlier times. It also explores the two English monasteries from which modern Ampleforth began, Dieulouard in France (1608), the original St Laurence's, and Lamspringe in Germany (1643), from which the school was transferred in 1803.

At the end are numerous reference lists, and an Index.

The book is now available, hardback. The price is £12

Add postage & packing £2.50 (or £4 outside UK)
