The Ely Cathedral Handbook, written by Charles William Stubbs and originally published in 1904, is a comprehensive guide to the history, architecture, and art of Ely Cathedral in Cambridgeshire, England. The book begins with an overview of the cathedral's origins, including its founding as a monastery in the 7th century and its transformation into a cathedral in the 11th century. It then delves into the cathedral's architectural features, such as the Norman nave, the Gothic choir, and the famous octagon tower. The book also includes detailed descriptions of the cathedral's many artworks, including stained glass windows, sculptures, and paintings. Throughout the book, Stubbs provides a wealth of historical and cultural context, situating the cathedral within the broader context of English religious and architectural history. The Ely Cathedral Handbook is an essential resource for anyone interested in the history and architecture of one of England's most iconic cathedrals.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
