'[a] gem of a book' Spectator Churches and cathedrals were
originally built to be read. They are alive with images and
symbols. But today few people, including regular visitors, truly
understand the wealth of meaning in what they find there. How to
Read a Church is a fascinating guide for anybody who wants to know
more about what they see in a church or cathedral. It explains the
significance of church layout, the symbolism of key scenes and the
importance of details such as the use of colours and letters. It is
an essential guide to the history, meanings and messages of these
beautiful buildings and the treasures they contain.
