A Book In A Million (10/10 people found this helpful)
Anyone wishing to see how church architecture and spirituality were affected by political and theological developments in England should purchase this book. It is a wealth of information, extremely well written and illustrated throughout with excellent examples of church architecture.
The beauty of this book is that is explains the essence of continuity in English Christianity as perceived through the experience of ordinary worshippers and does not get embroiled with the relative merits of theological standpoints.
An excellent book, buy one for the Vicar!!!
