Produktbeschreibung
A compelling doorway into a storied English shrine, Bell's Cathedrals opens a window onto Hereford's grand medieval past and invites you to walk its stones again. This is more than a guide to a single church. It offers a precise architectural description and a concise history of the episcopal see, presenting Hereford as a living tapestry of medieval church heritage. Rich in detail yet approachable, it serves as a historical guidebook for researchers of ecclesiastical buildings and for heritage enthusiasts seeking a complete illustrated survey of England's cathedral fabric. The narrative blends scholarly note with human reverence, turning stone, timber, and glass into a resonant chronicle of faith and community. Fisher's study stands as a mark of literary and historical significance, charting how the Herefordshire landscape shaped a national story of architecture and devotion. The book will appeal to casual readers drawn to evocative histories and to classic-literature collectors who value precision, period atmosphere, and lasting cultural resonance. It is a work that invites reflection on the craft of cathedrals and the enduring power of place within England's medieval architecture. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure, it remains a vital resource for scholars, artefacts collectors, and anyone who cherishes a complete, thoughtful overview of cathedral life.
