St. Mary's Church | Abbott Bean of Glastonbury wrote five volumes of "Britain's History Prior to Christianity". He had a library of over 200 books. The Glastonbury Church of St. Mary with its library was enlarged to become the largest church in the British Isles. St. Mary's Church trained priests like St. Patrick who took Christianity to Ireland. The church and its vast library was burned in 1184 to destroy the records of the inferior race which William the Conqueror subjugated. King William gave orders that once the Norman Churches were constructed the Saxon churches were to be burnt. Before St. Mary's Church was burnt, [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_of_Malmesbury William of Malmsbury] read the records of the library and recorded the history from Joseph of Arimathea to the 1100's. William of Malmsbury also made a historical summary of Glastonbury.
