Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Ancient Cotswold Churches, Vol. 1: Illustrated With Pen-and-Ink Drawings by Cecily, Daubeny and the Author's Photographs
The Introduction, while classifying the main characteristics of the churches, provides also a short glossary, the various paragraphs of which may be read in conjunction with the descri tion of any individual church. As an appendix, an index has been designe to give, at a glance, the most outstanding features, arranged according to place-names.
In the preparation of this volume, help was received from various sources, and this, Wherever possible, has been acknowledged in the following pages. A particular expression of gratitude, however, is due to Mr. St. Clair B'addeley, who, besides so often and so readily responding with valuable advice, annotated a number of the proofs. Many profitable hours have been spent in the library of the Bristol and Gloucestershire Archaeological Society, at Gloucester: where Mr. Roland Austin obligingly placed his wide knowledge of local literature at the writer's disposal and also revised the list of references. Thanks must be rendered also to my wife, for her ever-available help and for the patient care with which she prepared the drawings.
