Arts & Crafts Churches Alec Hamilton London Lund Humphries, 2020 352 pages / illustrations (some colour), maps / 26 cm This book provides a detailed account of the phenomenon of th e Arts & Crafts church, examining nearly 200 of the finest examples, mostly built between 1884 and 1918 in England, Scotland and Wales. These churches are visually arresting, with often quaint, at times far-fetched and capricious exteriors. Internally, they often contain beautiful elements, including reredoses, pulpits, lecterns, pews, doors, lighting, stained glass and altars. They also tell a fascinating story about religion as Britain entered the age of modernity. ISBN: 978-1-848223219 Show more
