Book excerpt: '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.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Cathedrals of England and Wales This new, or at least freshened, knowledge has undoubtedly added much to the interest with which all ecclesiological students regard this most graceful Of English cathedrals. Nor is it a knowledge Of the fabric alone, Of its architectural character and change, that has increased during the progress Of these works. Modern science and modern scholar ship have advanced with gigantic strides, and such a connection has been established between their various branches as has thrown new light in all directions where it was scarcely to be hoped for, and from quarters whence it was scarcely expected. Of course there are those who tell us that the whole Of Lich field Cathedral has been too completely rejuvenated, and that it has lost the venerable rust which carried us back to the days of the great mediaeval architects. But in truth the aerugo was Of no real high antiquity. It is the roman-cement and compo', the whitewash the lath and plaster, and the carpenter's Gothic woodwork of the later Georgian epoch which have been removed; and we can now recognise, far more distinctly than before was possible, the grace and beauty of the original work.
