A synopsis of the book from the internet: "A fascinating history of the iconic London landmark Westminster Abbey, by the notable English churchman and academic Arthur Penrhyn Stanley. Arthur Penrhyn Stanley was the leading liberal theologian of his time in England and author of a number of popular works on Church History. Serving as the Dean of Westminster from 1864 to 1881, Stanley was a leading authority on the Gothic abbey church, as demonstrated within this work, his 'Memorials of Westminster Abbey'. Whilst occasionally inaccurate, the work contains a vast amount of information on the building and its history, clearly demonstrating Stanley's interest in (and attempts to preserve) the treasure of historic monuments in the building."
