Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from Development Character of Gothic Architecture The idea having widely prevailed that Gothic was an art common to the nations of the North, each country has in turn laid claim to the superiority of its own style. This idea, as I endeavour to show, is incorrect, and has arisen from a lack of discriminating analysis. The peculiarities of pointed design, exhibited by the different countries of Europe.

Excerpt from Development Character of Gothic Architecture In the following attempt to set forth the development and character of Gothic architecture I use the term "Gothic," because it has been established by custom; and because, since it was owing to the infusion of Northern genius that the style was brought into being, it is not an entirely inappropriate term. But I use it in a restricted sense; confining it to that style of the Middle Ages which was the fullest development of new principles, and most distinctly a mediæval product. In thus restricting the term, I am forced to exclude the greater part of what has usually been called Gothic architecture, because of its failure to exhibit those qualities of design and construction which characterize the distinctive style. The general term pointed architecture will suffice to include those other classes of monuments which have been hitherto erroneously classed with Gothic. The position to which my study of the subject has led me differs considerably from that which has hitherto been maintained, especially by English writers. In the works of the true Gothic style we have a new structural system carried out with the strictest logic, and with a controlling sense of beauty. They are works of the highest art, in which sound mechanical principles serve as the secure foundation for the exercise of the poetic imagination. It will, doubtless, seem to readers already more or less familiar with the subject an extravagant position that Gothic architecture, as I define it, was never practised elsewhere than in France. Yet from this position I can see no escape. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Development and Character of Gothic Architecture It has been necessary to devote a considerable portion of the book to detailed descriptions of structural forms and adjustments. These may prove tedious to the unprofessional reader but I have endeavoured to make them as brief as was consistent with thoroughness, and to express myself, as far as possible, in terms that may be generally understood. The illustrations to the book have been reproduced either on wood or by mechanical process from drawings, the most of which were made on the spot, or from photographs, by myself. For some of the illustrations of sculpture the drawings have been made from photographs either by my daughter, or by myself; and several of the most elaborate illustrations of entire buildings have been drawn from photographs for the engraver by Mr. H. W. Brewer of London, the well-known architectural draughtsman. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
