Privately printed at the expense of an Association of noblemen and gentlemen. This curious and interesting memorial of early honours contains the evidence of upwards of three hundred earls, barons, knights and esquires; of each an interesting biographical notice is given; and their depositions abound in interesting information, illustrative of the history, manners and customs of this country in the fourteenth century. Only a small edition was printed, and none of the copies were intended for sale. This celebrated dispute was carried on in the Court of Chivalry, during a period of five years, with great spirit by both parties, who enlisted as witnesses some of the most distinguished knights and warriors who flourished in that age of chivalry. One of the witnesses was "Geffrey Chaucere, Esquier," who mentions his captivity in France.

These Pedigrees differ from those in "Burke's Landed Gentry," inasmuch as they are not condensed, but, for the most part, extracted in full from the old County Histories, which are now comparatively unobtainable. In some instances the larger ones contain several families; and as in all cases the younger branches of each family are represented as fully and in the same manner as that of the head of the family, considerable additional interest and popularity is naturally acquired. 14657 YORKSHIRE, 3 vols. 4to. numerous woodcuts of Arms (pub. £8. 8s), cloth, £5. 5s 14658 1874 CONTENTS:-Vol. I, West Riding-Vol. II, West Riding-Vol. III, North and East Riding.
