The book draws on four surviving manuscripts to present the prayers, ceremonies, and ordinances that defined the Gilbertine liturgy. These texts provide unique insights into the daily lives and spiritual practices of this important religious order, which played a significant role in English medieval society.

This study sheds light on the diverse and dynamic nature of medieval English religious life, highlighting the ways in which different monastic communities adapted and transformed the dominant liturgical practices of their time.
