A Description and Defense of the Restorations of the Exterior of Lincoln Cathedral is a book written by John Chessell Buckler in 1866. The book provides a detailed account of the restoration work carried out on the exterior of Lincoln Cathedral, one of the most iconic and historic buildings in England. The author describes the various stages of the restoration process, from the initial survey and assessment of the building's condition to the final completion of the work. The book also includes a defense of the restoration work, which was controversial at the time due to concerns about the preservation of the building's original features. Buckler argues that the restoration work was necessary to preserve the cathedral for future generations and that great care was taken to ensure that the original character of the building was maintained. The book is illustrated with detailed drawings and photographs of the restoration work, providing a fascinating insight into the techniques and methods used by the restorers. Overall, A Description and Defense of the Restorations of the Exterior of Lincoln Cathedral is an important historical document that sheds light on the challenges and controversies involved in the restoration of a major architectural landmark.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
