Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Cathedrals and Cloisters of the Isle De France, Vol. 1: Including Bourges, Troyes, Reims and Rouen
T was with some trepidation that the makers Of these books turned again towards the isle-de-france.
The grandeur of the mighty Cathedrals of this terri tory, the many possible photographs from which a comparatively small number must be selected, the huge mass Of archaeological, historical, legendary, and architectural detail Of which only the best - and a little Of the best - should be chosen - these were prob lems which, they knew, would meet them in every Cathedral-city.
