This volume in the series HISTORY OF WORLD ARCHITECTURE covers the Gothic period which dominated European building for more than four hundred years. The author examines the widely varied historical and geographical loci of the Gothic Style, not only in France where it originated, but also in England, Germany, Austria, Spain, Italy and Portugal. Both secular and religious structures, such as the cathedrals of Chartres, Canterbury, Milan and Barcelona are place in their proper artistic context. Diagrams, floor plans, and reconstructions of the magnificent and diverse buildings are among the 300 illustrations accompany the text.
