Beskrivning
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 100 photographs, this history of the ‘Collegiate Church’ is at the same time a history of the English church in miniature.

Recensioner i media

'It is hard to do justice to the richness of this collection, which is institutional history at its best: careful scholarship, sensitivity to the shifting local, national, and even international context, informed by different disciplinary studies, attentive to the impact of key individuals, and wonderfully illuminated with nearly a hundred photographs, paintings, satires, engravings, and maps.'The Journal of British Studies'A wonderful history of an important institution, this will be essential reading for all Mancunians and anyone interested in church history more generally.'Church Times
