Title: The Medieval Churches of the City of Norwich
Description: Norwich Heritage Economic and Regeneration Trust, 2010. Linnen band met stofomslag. Pp: 157. The Medieval Churches of the City of Norwich - published by HEART and designed and edited by East Publishing - reveals the city's compelling ecclesiastical set, celebrating the churches as medieval works of art, as valuable social documents and as ancient places of prayer. Author Nicholas Groves, an acknowledged authority on the subject, describes in rich detail the 31 surviving medieval churches in Norwich city centre, as well as many lost since the Reformation. Contemporary photography and fascinating archive material capture the churches' history, architecture, stained glass, monuments and other exquisite features. Many of the contemporary photographs were entries in HEART's medieval churches photography competition in 2009: they reflect the many ways the buildings are viewed and valued by local people today. Includes material from interviews by Christina Lister, who met people associated with each of the 31 churches. This new book is a follow-up to the award-winning and very popular Norwich 12 guidebook, published by HEART in 2008. ISBN: 9780956038517. Cond./Kwaliteit: Goed.
