'Inspired . . . encourages us to take a fresh look at the familiar'
- The Times England's cathedrals are the nation's glory. They tower
over its landscape, outranking palaces, castles and mansions. They
attract roughly half the nation's population each year. For a
millennium they have been objects of pilgrimage for those seeking
faith, consolation and beauty. Still at the start of the
twenty-first century, they remain unequalled in their size and
splendour. More than any other English institution, cathedrals
reflect the vicissitudes of history and should be treasured as
such. They are custodians of culture and of the rituals of civic
life. They offer welfare and relieve suffering. They uplift spirits
with their beauty. In a real sense they are still what they were
when first built a millennium ago, a glimpse of the sublime.
Gloriously illustrated throughout, England's Cathedrals not only
offers us a companion to England's Thousand Best Churches, it takes
us on an enthralling tour of the nation and its history, through
some of our most astonishing buildings.
