THE CISTERCIAN ABBEYS OF BRITAIN Far from the Concourse of Men
Published to celebrate the "White Monks" 900th anniversary in 1998, this volume provides a comprehensive introduction to all of the Cistercian abbeys held by Welsh Historic Monuments, the English Heritage Society, and Historic Scotland. They reflect the rich architectural legacy left in the British Isles by the most successful of all the medieval monastic orders (there were 62 foundations in England alone). The Cistercian architectural legacy provides tangible evidence of an extraordinary and intensely personal form of monasticism that embraced all Europe. Hundreds of color and B&W photos. Hardcover, 224 pages. 10 1/4" x 8 1/2"
