No sight is more evocative than a small village where an embattled tower stands proudly or a great sweep of landscape from which an elegant spire soars above trees and meadows. Celebrate the English church in all its diversity--the different architecture, regional styles, structural materials, personalities, and settings. Each example combines familiarity with the pleasure of discovery.

Book Description
Simon Jenkins has travelled the length and breadth of England to select his thousand best churches. Organised by county, each church is described - often with delightful asides - and given a star-rating from one to five. All of the county sections are prefaced by a map locating each church, and lavishly illustrated with colour photos from the Country Life archive. Jenkins contends that these churches house a gallery of vernacular art without equal in the world. Here, he brings that museum to public attention.
