Language: English.\u003c\/p\u003e\n This is the first study for more than seventy years to consider the early monasteries of Cornwall through a combination of evidence -written sources (the first hagiography of Brittany and Cornwall, ecclesiastical documents, Anglo-Saxon charters, Domesday Book), place-names and material remains. The main emphasis is on identifying the sites of these monasteries, and tracing their survival to later periods; Dr Olson also considers the origin and progress ofmonasticism in south-west Britain, and looks at the monasteries' characteristics and, in a broader context, their place in Church and society.  \n\n                                         Editorial Reviews                   Review   The starting point for any future work on this subject...It is quite possible that this will remain the last word on the early monastic church in Cornwall.
