Francis Drake, not to be confused with the famous explorer of the same name, was an 18th-century English historian who is best-remembered for his book ‘Eboracum’. Eboracum was the name given to the ancient city built by ancient Rome in what is now modern-day York. Having been fascinated by ancient manuscripts, Drake began compiling a history of the city of York focusing on the cathedral and city history. The popularity of the book propelled Drake to publish an abridged version of the work focusing solely on the cathedral itself.

 

This 1783 edition of Drake’s history of York Cathedral includes lists of archbishops and numerous folding engraved views of the cathedral including impressive views of the façade and interior floor plan.
