Balmerino and Its Abbey: A Parochial History is a book written by James Campbell in 1867. The book provides a detailed account of the history of Balmerino Abbey, a Cistercian monastery located in Fife, Scotland. The author begins by tracing the origins of the abbey, which was founded in the 13th century by King Alexander II of Scotland. He then goes on to describe the various phases of the abbey’s development, including its expansion in the 14th and 15th centuries and its decline in the 16th century following the Scottish Reformation. Campbell also delves into the social and economic history of the surrounding area, describing the lives of the local people and their relationship with the abbey. He provides information on the various industries that flourished in the area, such as agriculture and fishing, and the impact that these industries had on the local economy. In addition to its historical content, Balmerino and Its Abbey also contains numerous illustrations and photographs, providing readers with a visual representation of the abbey and its surroundings. Overall, the book is a comprehensive and informative guide to the history of Balmerino Abbey and the surrounding area, and is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Scottish history or the history of monasticism in Europe.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
