		English chronicler, belonged probably to a Cheshire family, and according to Anthony Wood was educated at one of the English universities, afterwards becoming a "minister of God's Word."

		The work was in two volumes, which were illustrated, and although Holinshed did a great deal of the work he received valuable assistance from William Harrison (1534-1593) and others, while the part dealing with the history of Scotland is mainly a translation of Hector Boece's Scotorum historiae.

		Raphael Holinshed’s Chronicles of England, Scotland, and Ireland combined fact with fiction, and included superstitious elements which would have been regarded as wholly natural and truthful at the time, but were later discovered to be false.
