About This Item
London: Batsford , 1947. Hardcover. Very Good. A comprehensive survey of the English Gothic style, at its truest expression, in architecture and music. This extraordinary national spirit is not confined to the Gothic age, but is found before and since in all its warm geniality and grotesqueness. The author traces its history from its beginnings and gives us many fine examples in the form of buildings, plays and musical compositions. An essential reference work on first publication, this volume has remained an important tool for scholars and enthusiasts for many generations. Contains 242 pages, 215 x 15cm, with 6 colour and 170 b&w illustrations, plus 172 figures. Ex-library, front endpapers removed, some library markings. Russet-red cloth boards in Very Good condition.
