Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Dean's Handbook to Gloucester Cathedral
In this little handbook, the writer (save in a few special instances) has designedly omitted the usual notices of monu ments devoid of public interest, he has ruled out all wordy descriptions of ordinary stained-glass windows, and generally takes no notice of objects which do not possess any remarkable architectural or historical features.
Attention, however, is specially directed to, and careful descriptions are given of well-nigh everything in this ancient abbey (cathedral) of real beauty and of historic interest.
