The object of this Collection is to bring together a series of mediaeval altars for the benefit of architects and of others concerned in the arrangement and decoration of churches. It is intended as a supplement to the Alcuin Club Collection I,1 which consisted exclusively of pictures of English altars. Here examples from Continental sources have also been used to illustrate the whole subject of the holy table in Western Europe in the Gothic period. Further illustration of the same subject will be provided in course of time from oil paintings, and from the existing remains of mediaeval altars and reredoses. In the present publication (as in Collection I) contemporary pictures have been used. These are chiefly from manuscript sources, but a few early woodcuts have been added for the sake of comparison and as showing the persistence of ancient forms even when they began to be clothed in the detail of the early Renaissance. While some of the pictures here reproduced are among the finest examples of the miniature painting of their time, no attempt has been made to confine this Collection to work of the best execution. Good, bad and indifferent miniatures have been used, so long as they could be said to illustrate the subject. Further, in a book intended to be of some practical use, it has not been thought desirable to begin at too early a date ;but rather to keep to the period of the fuller development of Gothic art, and the time when miniatures had become more realistic than they were in earlier days. A word of warning must here be spoken lest the reader regard these pictures as our sole guide to the arrangement and appearance of mediaeval altars. They are far from this, being merely a help to the interpretation of other evidence, partly documentary, partly that of existing structures and remains. And they cannot be taken by themselves, nor looked at without re (Typographical errors above are due to OCR software and don't occur in the book.)

The Reverend Percy Dearmer MA (Oxon), DD, (1867-1936) was an English priest and liturgist best known as the author of The Parson's Handbook, a liturgical manual. A lifelong socialist, he was an early advocate of the ordination of women to public ministry but not to the priesthood, and very concerned with social justice. He had a strong influence on the music of the church and, with Ralph Vaughan Williams and Martin Shaw, is credited with the revival and spread of traditional and medieval English musical forms. In 1901, after serving four curacies, Dearmer was appointed the third vicar of London church St. Mary-the-Virgin, Primrose Hill, where he remained until 1915. His works include: Christian Socialism and Practical Christianity (1897), The English Liturgy (1903), The English Hymnal (1906), Socialism and Religion (1908), The Church and Social Questions (1910) and Reunion and Rome (1911).

Lambeth Palace, S.E. A pril 23, 1910. Dear Mr. Dearmer, I have read with interest and, generally speaking, with warm approval the advance copy of your little book on Reunion and Rome. You do not ask or expect me to give to it an official imprimatur. Such is not our way of procedure, and there are arguments or statements here and there which I should myself have expressed a little differently. But I have no hesitation in saying that I regard the little book as a valuable contribution to our popular literature on a grave subject. I am sure that you are wise in reprinting, for the use of many who might not otherwise see them, the careful words of the recent Lambeth Conference and of its Committee. Your book will, in a simple way, meet a real need, and I cordially wish it God speed. I am. (Typographical errors above are due to OCR software and don't occur in the book.)
