This guidebook to Notre Dame cathedral, originally published in 1902, offers a history of the great Parisian structure accompanied by over forty detailed photographs and drawings.

Charles Hiatt approaches Notre Dame in multiple ways; first, its importance as a religious and communal building, a place for Christians to congregate and pray, or celebrate public events. Secondly, its role as an architectural centerpiece of Gothic grandeur, showcasing the beautiful design and the cultural glory of the French capital. Thirdly, we are treated to the social aspect; the immense pride residents of Paris took in the great church, and its role before, during, and after the great upheaval of the French Revolution.
