A Victorian clergyman walks his readers through an English parish church, beginning at the lich-gate and the graves of the churchyard and moving inward through the porch, the pavement, the walls and the nave. At each stage he explains the history and Christian symbolism of the fabric and furniture, illustrated with engravings of churches, brasses and tiles from across England.
A gentle guide for anyone who likes to linger in old country churches and understand what they are looking at. Download the free EPUB.
