As a boy, he travelled through England and France with his father who was making architectural drawings of medieval and ecclesiastical buildings. It was these visits that inspired Pugin s idea of the Gothic. He became one of the main promoters of the Gothic revival style in architecture. In 1835, Pugin converted to Catholicism, which became a dominant force in his life. A staunch advocate of the religion, Pugin spread his belief that Roman Catholicism was the only faith worthy of Gothic architecture, saying, "I feel perfectly convinced the Roman Catholic Religion is the only one in which the grand and sublime style of church architecture can ever be restored" (Harries, Pugin: An illustrated life of Augustus Welby Northmore Pugin, 1812-1852. Buckinghamshire: Shire Publications Ltd.,1994.). Preface in Vol. 1 by the author is dated 1831. Includes bibliographical footnotes. Vol. 3 contains a "Preface to the second edition".
