Living and working in such a charmed home, where bits of the wonderful abbey church are ever meeting the gaze, questions are ever and again coming up as to what special epoch, and under what special circumstances were these inimitable mighty prayer homes built? And what special inspiration fired the builders' hearts? Was there any ancient type after which these grand piles were designed and finished? Who were the builders? What of the vanished dwellers in these abbeys and these cloisters? Have they any special story? It was in framing replies to these and many such queries that this book slowly grew into its present form. Illustrated. |
