Opplysninger | "First published in 2017 by Impress Books. This revised edition published in 2024" - Tittelbladets bakside. - "The first history of all the English cathedrals, from Birmingham and Bury St Edmunds to Worcester and York Minster. England's sixty-two Anglican and Catholic cathedrals are some of our most iconic buildings, attracting millions of worshippers and visitors every year. Yet although much has been written about their architecture, there is no complete history of their life and activities. This is the first such book to provide one, stretching from Roman times to the present day. The History of England's Cathedrals explains where and why they were founded, who staffed them, and how their structures evolved. It describes their worship and how this changed over the centuries, their schools and libraries, and their links with the outside world."
