Summary "The History of Lynn, Vol. 1 [of 2]" by William Richards is a historical account written in the early 19th century. This work meticulously chronicles the civil, ecclesiastical, political, commercial, and military history of the town of Lynn from its earliest recorded times to the present day of publication. It aims to provide a comprehensive exploration of Lynn's evolution, significance, and the influences upon its development, including the notable changes in its geography and trade. The opening of the work introduces the author's intent and background, discussing the challenges associated with previous historical attempts concerning Lynn, as well as the gathering of materials often lost or neglected. Richards highlights his efforts to compile a thorough history of the town, outlining its geographical location, the significance of the River Ouse, and the impact of historical events on its growth. He also laments past inaccuracies in Lynn's local histories and expresses a commitment to truthfulness in his narrative, setting the stage for a detailed examination of the town’s past, beginning with its ancient origins and the transformations undergone through various historical epochs.
