The Gothic Enterprise by Robert A Scott
Explores why medieval people built Gothic cathedrals, how they built them, what conception of the divine lay behind their creation, and how religious and secular leaders used cathedrals for social and political purposes. This title helps us understand how ordinary people managed such tremendous feats of physical and creative energy.
