Book Description

Among the most influential figures of the Gothic Revival in nineteenth-century Britain, Augustus Welby Northmore Pugin (1812-52) distinguished himself as an architect, author and interior designer. His well-illustrated 1841 publication on ecclesiastical design is reissued here with his Apology for the Revival of Christian Architecture in England (1843).
