Читать книгу The Conversion of Europe - Richard Fletcher - Страница 3

To my Father

and

in memory of my Mother

who nurtured my love of History

and by encouraging regular church-going

made me permanently interested

in how those buildings got there and what they were for.

In memory also of

Nico Colchester

my cousin and beloved friend,

a man of rare quality and manifold talents

whose life was tragically cut short

in 1996 at the age of only forty-nine

with whom I often discussed this book

in remote places far from libraries

in Devon and the Cévennes.
