Excerpt from Cathedrals of Spain
N the last dozen years many English books on Spain have appeared. They have dealt with their subject from the point of view of the artist or the his torian, the archaeologist, the politician, or the mere sight-seer. The student of architecture, or the travel er, desiring a more intimate or serious knowledge of the great cathedrals, has had nothing to consult since Street published his remarkable book some forty years ago. There have been artistic impressions, as well as guide-book recitations, by the score. Some have been excellent, though few have surpassed the older ones of Dumas, pere, and Gautier, or Baedeker's later guide-book. A year ago appeared the second and last volume of Sefior Lamperez y Romea's His toria de la Arquitectura Cristiana Espanola en la Edad Media, a work so comprehensive and scholarly that it practically stands alone.
