John Strype (1643 - 1737) was an English historian and biographer who spent much of the early part of his long life collecting old charters, letters and various documents pertaining to the Tudor and Protestant Reformation periods. Most of these original materials have been preserved and are included among the Lansdowne manuscripts in the British Museum. Strype's works are not really original in nature, his work having mainly been to arrange the materials, but they are of considerable value as convenient reference books. He produced cumbersome but valuable works such as this "Ecclesiastical Memorials" which is a catalogue of letters, speeches, proclamations, records and other important manuscripts relating to the reigns of Henry VIII, Edward VI and Mary I.
