Description
Steeple Chasing Around Britain is a beautifully written exploration of the churches and cathedrals that dot the British landscape. Peter Ross, a masterful storyteller, takes readers on a journey to uncover the hidden stories and secrets behind these iconic buildings.
From the unassuming Norfolk church with a disturbing secret to the mighty cathedrals of London, Ross weaves a tale of beauty, meaning, and history. Along the way, he introduces us to a cast of characters, including monks, druids, and angels, who bring these ancient structures to life.
This is a book that celebrates the beauty of churches, but also tells a story of people and place. With its engaging narrative and vivid descriptions, Steeple Chasing Around Britain is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in architecture, history, or the human experience.
