A Guide to Cumbrian Historical Sources

Book

Cumbria is fortunate to have a wide and varied range of archives available to the historian. This book introduces the new (and not so new) researcher to the extensive range of archive sources relating to Cumbria and brings them together in a directory of the main publicly accessible collections held in record offices, libraries, museums and other organisations such as the Historic Environment Record. It also includes descriptions of those sources to be found in neighbouring counties and an introductory guide to online resources and catalogues.

This book will be useful to anyone interested in Cumbria's history and archaeology.
