"The Cathedrals and Churches of the Rhine" by M. F. (Milburg Francisco) Mansfield is a doorway into the world of olden-day church designs spotted along the Rhine River. It shines a light on the different styles, special traits, and the deep importance of these churches. It tells how the architecture in the Rhine area is different from the more well-known Gothic styles in France. The beginning of the book thinks about the past and culture of the region and how that shows up in the church buildings. It’s a look at how big moments in history and important people, like the Romans and Charlemagne, helped mold the way these churches were made. With many fine details it pushes us to really see and care about these often overlooked buildings. The author starts the journey showing we're looking at art and culture from way back when as we learn all about these sacred places.
