He explains the building equipment and falsework needed, the actual operations undertaken, and the sequence of these operations as specifically as they can be deduced today. In the absence of contemporary accounts of the techniques used by medieval builders, Fitchen's study brilliantly pieces together clues from manuscript illuminations, pictorial representations, and the fabrics of the building themselves. The result is the clearest picture available of the innovations and techniques that enabled these buildings, which still generate awe today, to rise majestically above the low buildings of their surrounding towns. It's a book that will enthrall readers of history, and one that, as \u003ci\u003eProgressive Architecture\u003c\/i\u003e noted, \"no student of architecture should miss.\"\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 364\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.84 x 9.08 x 5.95 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e April 28, 1997\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52490583212325,"sku":"9780226252032","price":42.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0977\/5104\/0293\/files\/0t_C5j_fL69780226252032.webp?v=1781231737","url":"https:\/\/www.worldsafarishops.shop\/products\/the-construction-of-gothic-cathedrals-a-study-of-medieval-vault-erection-paperback","provider":"World Safari Shops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
