As the title indicates, it is an introduction to the study of English Church Architecture, excluding work done before the Norman Conquest & after the reformation. It may be thought that a work in two quarto volumes is somewhat voluminous for an ""Introduction."" The answer is that a general treatment, especially if aided, as in these volumes, with all manner of plans, drawings, sections and diagrams, as well as photographs, will be found at once easier to follow and more enjoyable than a dry condensed text-book. It has proved to be one of the most seminal works in this field.* A VG+ text copies of both volumes with some age and wear. No dust jackets.* 0
