Manchester Cathedral: A History of the Collegiate Church and Cathedral, 1421 to the Present

0/5 ( ratings)

Founded in 1421, the Collegiate Church of Manchester, which became a cathedral in 1847, is of outstanding historical and architectural importance. But until now it has not been the subject of a comprehensive study. Appearing on the 600th anniversary of the cathedral's inception by Henry V, this book explores the building's past and its place at the heart of the world's first industrial city, touching on everything from architecture and music to misericords and stained glass. Written by a team of renowned experts and beautifully illustrated with more than 150 photographs, this history of the 'Collegiate Church' is at the same time a history of the English church in miniature.
