Publisher Description: Originally published in 1901 and being Volume 1 of 3, this early work on A dictionary of Architecture and Building is both expensive and hard to find in its first edition. The contents are extensively illustrated with full page and text drawings and photos. Illustrations vary from cathederal's and Chateau's in France too The Natural History Museaum in London. It will prove of much interest to the Architecturial enthusiast. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork. |
