Neato medieval architecture!, March 30, 2000
This review is from: Timber-Framed Buildings of England (Paperback)
If you are interested in medieval architecture, then this book would be a great purchase. It is packed with hundreds of pictures of timber-framed buildings, such as cottages, churches, mills, guildhalls, and town markets. In addition to exterior shots, there are pictures of the interior construction of these beautiful buildings, as well as plenty of explanatory diagrams and maps. The author does an excellent job of explaining the process of timber frame construction, and the socio-economic reasons for their fabrication and destruction. I have found this book to be very useful in constructing models of medieval buildings, as well as an informative read.
