"Cathedral Cities of England" by George Gilbert is an illustrated historical account written in the early 20th century. This work explores the rich architectural heritage and historical significance of England's cathedral cities, detailing their evolution, styles, and the impact of notable figures in their development. Specifically, the book appears to delve into the intricate architectural styles, such as Romanesque and Gothic, that define these cathedrals, while also addressing their historical contexts. The opening of the book provides a foundation for the subsequent exploration of England's cathedrals by presenting an introduction that elucidates various architectural styles and terms that will be referenced throughout the text. It emphasizes the importance of understanding the origins and developments of different architectural forms, such as Anglo-Saxon and Norman styles, which shaped England's ecclesiastical constructions. This analytical approach indicates that the book is designed not only for those interested in architecture but also for readers who appreciate the intertwined history of religion and culture in England, establishing an engaging context for the detailed accounts of each cathedral city to follow.
