Publisher's cloth, pictorial dustjacket. As new. Reading, Spire Books Ltd., 2010. 8vo. 36 pp. + facsimile: [72] pp. including plates. A faithful reproduction of W. F. Pocock's book of 1819, probably the most important Georgian pattern book not hitherto reprinted.

The 44 model designs were enthusiastically copied, especially by Nonconformists, and the letterpress provided sound, practical suggestions for those contemplating building. It also had enormous influence in North America where countless buildings can be traced back to Pocock's manual, a compelling chapter in the story of transatlantic architectural history. The original work is accompanied by a scholarly, well-illustrated introduction by Christopher Webster, the leading expert on churches of this period, who sets the book in its wider context.…
