Synopsis
Excerpt from Turrets, Towers, and Temples: The Great Buildings of the World
Ruskin says: It is well to have not only what men have thought and felt, but what their hands have handled and their strength wrought all the days of their life. It is also well to have what sympathetic authors have written about these mas sive and wonderful creations of stone which have looked down upon and outlived so many genera tions of mankind.
