It remains one of the best guides to hundreds of terms used in Greek, Roman, Medieval, and Renaissance architecture. Architects and students of architecture will find the reference indispensable; tourists will appreciate it as a portable guide to features of historical buildings. Illustrations of many British cathedrals, castles, and parish churches, used as examples. Amazon Customer Average Rating:
