Treasures of English Churches, The : Witnesses to the History of a Nation

This celebration of some of the greatest art, architecture and furniture to be found in English churches offers a fascinating account of centuries of accumulated wealth, and is set off by a selection of breathtaking photographs by Matthew Byrne. It covers changing architectural styles across the centuries, and prominent examples of artistic work, including stained glass, rood screens, church monuments and curious carvings.

This book is published in association with The National Churches Trust, a national, independent charity dedicated to supporting church buildings across the UK.
