Westminster Abbey has seen much during its long, rich history, from the coronations of kings and queens to the burials of prime ministers. However, it is also a church that remembers the men and women of the arts, dedicated writers and poets who spoke so eloquently that the nation wished to remember them with plaques upon the abbey's walls so that all who traveled there could remember too. In these volumes, their wise words speak to and for us all.
Westminster Memorials, Volume 1 features works by a range of authors from Matthew Arnold to Lewis Carroll.
