Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - The Development of English Building Construction was originally published in 1916. Its author, C. F. Innocent, had an great passion for his subject and an extensive knowledge of English architecture. He wrote this volume as a reaction to the predominant position of ecclesiastical buildings in other works on English construction history, wishing instead to give precedence to the small but significant works of architecture that constitute a true history of English construction.
