Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Inventory of the Historical Monuments in Buckinghamshire, Vol. 2 Few informal words will not, I trust, be out of place by way of introduction to this Inventory, and may help to explain both the arrangement of these pages and the manner in which the monuments have been recorded. The volume contains (in addition to the terms of appointment and official report) an Historical Summary covering the whole of the County; a Sectional Preface which, under subject headings, calls attention to any particularly interesting examples mentioned in the Inventory; an illustrated Inventory, with a concise account of the monuments visited; a list of monuments that the Commissioners have selected as especially worthy of preservation; a glossary of architectural, heraldic and archaeological terms; a map showing the topographical distribution of the scheduled monuments, and an index.
