Summary:

Starting with a brief outline of the different types of church buildings in Europe from early Romanesque to late Gothic, this volume describes 15 types of furniture used inside the church. The book is divided into sections by parts of the church, such as the altar, tabernacle, pulpit, screens, fonts, statues, and the organ. Kroesen and Steensma (both Institute for Liturgical Research, U. of Groningen) employ text and a generous number of color photographs to illuminate life and faith during the Middle Ages. Text is in Dutch and English. Distributed by the David Brown Book Company. Annotation : 2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com).
