Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

1927. In the first half of this volume, dealing with Northern
France, Mr. Bumpus groups the cathedrals in their respective
Archiepiscopal Provinces. Thus: Amiens, Beauvais, Chalons and
Soissons follow Rheims; Bayeux, Coutances, Evreux and Seez are
grouped under Rouen; Blois, Chartres, Orleans and Versailles under
Paris, and so on. Those churches only are described which are
actually the seats of bishops in the present day, so that many
noble cathedrals, suppressed at the Revolution, such as Auxerre,
Laon, Lisieux, Noyon, Senlis and Saint Omer are omitted. In the
second half, which deals with the Southern portion of France, he
groups them in their respective Architectural Provinces because of
the opportunity it affords for some remarks upon local
peculiarities which are more marked in churches of the environing
district than in cathedrals where provincial localisms have, to a
very considerable extent disappeared before the march of
architectural progress and development.
