Foreword in volume 1 by A. W. Lawrence. Preface in volume 2 by Mrs. S. Lawrence
Volume 1 contains the author's thesis, written in connection with his history examination at Jesus College, Oxford on the subject: The influence of the crusades on European military architecture to the end of the twelfth century. The letters (volume 2) are selected from those which Lawrence wrote while on visits to castles in France, England, Wales, and Syria, in search of data for the thesis.
