Reviews

[This] attractively-produced and well-illustrated volume is thoroughly researched. * ECCLESIOLOGY TODAY * [A] magnificent and original study. -- Christopher Howse * DAILY TELEGRAPH * [This book] leads the way in the current movement urging the reappraisal of pre-Reformation monuments by what is regarded as a holistic art-historical contextualisation. . . . It is certainly essential reading for all interested in medieval church monuments. * Peregrinations *


[A] magnificent and original study. DAILY TELEGRAPH [Christopher Howse]
