 This took over 24 years of his life; however, when Wolfe realized he could not complete this project on his own, he hired Raphael Holinshed and William Harrison to assist him.Wolfe died with the work still uncompleted in 1573, and the project, changed to a work about just the British Isles (England, Ireland, and Scotland), was run by a consortium of three members of the London stationers.They kept Raphael Holinshed, who employed William Harrison, Richard Stanyhurst, Edmund Campion and John Hooker.
