When Christopher Somerville set out to explore Britain's cathedrals, he found his fixed ideas shaken to the roots. He pictured cathedrals as great unmoving bastions of tradition. He discovers buildings and communities that have been in constant upheaval for a thousand years. Here are stories of the monarchs and bishops who ordered the construction of these buildings, the masons whose genius brought them into being, and the peasants who worked and died on the scaffolding. Meeting believers and non-believers, architects and archaeologists, the cleaner who dusts the monuments and the mason who judges stone by its taste, we delve deep into the private lives and the uncertain future of these ever-voyaging Ships of Heaven.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Akroyd, Carry (illustrator). SHORTLISTED FOR THE WAINWRIGHT PRIZE FOR ILLUSTRATIVE BOOKS Swoop Sing Perch Paddle brings together 132 screenprints by renowned wildlife artist Carry Akroyd, celebrating British birds in all their colour and charm. Originally created for The Oldies Bird of the Month column, Carrys vibrant prints transport us through the seasons and across the country, from coast to coast and through forests, fields, back gardens and town centres. As a self-described bird-noticer, Carrys work reveals her keen observation of birds and their behaviour and her lifelong love of the landscapes they frequent. From a party of gregarious, seed-eating siskins to the poised peregrine perched high on a cathedral, each of her artworks is packed with personality. Carrys joyful prints are accompanied by succinct, entertaining texts from John McEwen, her long-time Bird of the Month collaborator and co-author of A Sparrows Lifes as Sweet as Ours, and their beautiful new collection is a delight for birdwatchers and art lovers alike. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Akroyd, Carry (illustrator). A Sparrows Lifes as Sweet as Ours is a collection based on the Bird of the Month column in The Oldie, which is written by an instigator of the magazine, John McEwen and illustrated by renowned wildlife artist Carry Akroyd. In this beautiful new book, painter and printmaker Carry Akroyd presents a sequence of her small screenprints, full of variety and colour, that illustrate British birds in all four seasons of the year. These stunning prints give full rein to her extensive knowledge of the British landscape, and what shines out of these dynamic designs is Carrys deft capturing of each birds characteristics set beautifully in relation to its habitat. Her consideration of each species combines accuracy with elegant simplicity. John McEwens accompanying text is written with charm and concision, and his original columns have been updated for this new collection. Johns light, eclectic approach connects snippets of ornithology, history, etymology and cookery, all expressed with wit and knowledge. His writing is spiced with poetry from Chaucer to the present as well as facts and stories, while personal and other anecdotes are included to inform and, above all, entertain. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.
