Description
No marks or inscriptions. No creasing to covers or to spine. A lovely clean crisp very tight copy with bright unmarked boards and no bumping to corners. Appears unread. 178pp. The author explains how Staffordshire was both a cradle and a finishing school for the architectural and religious movements which together changed the face of Victorian England. In this book he examines in detail the work of George Gilbert, A.W.N. Pugin, G.E. Street, G.F. Bodley and R.N.Shaw. With photographs, drawings and rare nineteenth century engravings in colour and b&w.
