Gloucester Cathedral by Susan Hamilton

Gloucester Cathedral is an extraordinary building on which the great events in the history of England and the Christian religion have left their indelible marks. Kings and queens have worshipped here. One king was crowned here; another is buried here. Great musicians have made music and composed music here. Stonemasons and architects have built or changed or restored the building through the centuries. Abbots, bishops and deans have had new ideas and made great changes. Religious strife, civil war and great events have all left their mark. Many great men and women are remembered here in wood and stone and glass. For centuries ordinary people have also come - and still do come - as worshippers, pilgrims and visitors. This beautifully illustrated book tells this story of Gloucester Cathedral.
Susan Hamilton has a background in medieval English literature. She was co-ordinator of visitor services at Gloucester Cathedral from 2000 until 2010 and remains responsible for the training of cathedral guides.
