Item description from seller

Cloth, 8vo, 23 cm, xiii, 207, [1] pp. From the preface: "The formation of a collection of manuscripts relating to the City, County, and University of Oxford under the name of MSS.

The First World War made impossible the continuance of the publication of a catalogue of accessions year by year, and it has seemed sensible to describe all the accessions of MSS. Top. Oxon. from 1916 onwards together in one volume." Among the more important collections of manuscripts covered by this volume are those of the following collectors and historians: Frederick Joseph Morrell (1811-82), and his son Frederick Parker Morrell (1839-1908); Percy Manning (1870-1917); Falconer Madan (1851-1935); H. E. Salter (1863-1951); Canon W. J. Oldfield (1857-1934); Henry Minn (1870-1961). Oxford Historical Society. Publications New series ; vol. 17. Near Very Good.…
