Introduction

Early research into brasses focussed chiefly on English brasses of the medieval and early modern periods. Today, however, the field is much wider. Chronologically it extends to brasses of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.

Martin is the Hon. Conservation Officer of the Monumental Brass Society and has written or co-written many books on the subject of brasses in various counties including the seventeen county volumes published since 1992, which describe and illustrate brasses from medieval times right up to the present day.
