The authorship of "The Book of St. Albans" 

 is generally ascribed to Dame Barnes, who is 

 said to have been Prioress of Sopwell near St. 

 Albans. This work is supposed to have been 

 written early in the 15th century, but the first 

 edition of it, which is entitled: "The bookys _cf 

 haukyng and huntyng: and also of cootamuris. 

 Compylyt at St. Albons, 1486," contains noth- 

 ing about fishing. The next edition (1496) con- 

 tains the famous "treatise on fishing, the earliest 

 in the English language. 



The "Treatyse" was republished in separate 

 form about the year 1500 and at least fifteen 

 editions of the whole work appeared before 

 1600, most of them being undated. ,
