From the rear cover
Church dedications are as widely used as they are little studied, yet their histories are often obscure and complicated. Part One of the books surveys their history in England from Roman times to the present day. Part Two is a detailed list of all 800 ancient parish churches and religious houses in Cornwall and Devon. It shows when their dedications first occur, the changes and misunderstandings that have happened, and the dates of parish feast days. Cornwall is a county of Celtic church dedications, while Devon's resemble those of the rest of England, so the book will be helpful in understanding dedications in both traditions.
