Is it possible to conduct a concise survey on the immense subject that is English architecture? David Watkin proves that it is: from Saxon times to the present day, Watkin directs the reader on a rich and enlightening journey that outlines the whole story, focusing on buildings that can still be seen today. The emphasis of this admirable and highly readable study is on the most exciting and ground-breaking periods and styles of English architectural genius.
