regarded specialist in his/her field. In addition to offering guidance
on the conservation of stained glass, sculpture, textiles, metalwork,
floors, furniture, decorative plasterwork, paintings and so on, the
book also covers the technical aspects of creating the right environment
with the heating, ventilation and lighting of the building. The advice
this volume contains will be essential reading for everyone concerned
with the care and upkeep of churches. |
