- New edition of this exploration of one of Britain's greatest buildings - A comprehensive, beautifully illustrated survey of Westminster Abbey's art treasures Westminster Abbey has a history stretching back over a thousand years. Founded as a Benedictine monastery in the mid-tenth century, it is the coronation church where monarchs have been crowned amid great splendor since 1066. The present church, begun by Henry III in 1245, is a treasure house of architectural and artistic achievement on which each succeeding century has left its mark. The medieval and Renaissance tombs within the Abbey, though among the most important in Europe, form only a small part of the extraordinary collection of gravestones, memorials and monumental sculpture for which it has long been famous. Ranging from the thirteenth-century shrine of St Edward and the Renaissance splendor of Henry VII's Lady Chapel, to the literary memorials of Poets' Corner and the statues of twentieth-century martyrs on the Abbey's west front, this book describes the stained glass, furniture, sculpture, textiles, wall paintings and many other historic artefacts found within this remarkable church. Contents: Introduction; Edward the Confessor's Chapel; Sacrarium and High Altar; Quire and Crossing; North Transept and Ambulatory; South Ambulatory and Transept; Nave; Lady Chapel; Cloisters; Abbey Precincts.

Excerpt from In the Choir of Westminster Abbey: A Story of Henry Purcell's Days As I look back on my past life, I may say it has been uneventful, yet it has fallen to my lot to see and hear much regarding those whose names are famous. So, mayhap, the record, which is a pleasing occupation to write, will be of interest to my descendants when I have passed hence. There comes to most of us a time of awakening from the dreams of childhood, a time when the shadows and bright visions of youth change into realities - times when we are brought face to face with the conviction that our pathway is not always flower-strewn, but there are thorns and brambles to encounter, and rough places to pass over, which cannot be avoided.
