Hardback. Condizione: Very Good. The north of England is often neglected by 'experts' of English architecture. John Grundy has set out to correct this oversight as he takes us on a tour of the north of England revealing the richness of its history and the beautiful, bizarre, awesome and occasionally useless buildings that have sprung up over the centuries. Not for the north the cosy villages set around picturesque greens of the south, nor the vast mansion houses that grew up from the prosperity and comfort of an England that hadn't been invaded since 1066. The north of England was a far more violent and brutal place with regular invasions from the Scots throughout the Middle Ages. The architecture of the day reflects this siege mentality. And later, during the Industrial Revolution, the landscape of the north was overlaid with the thick black smoke emanating from hundreds of factories as thousands of terraced houses were built to house the unfortunate labourers. Funny, quirky and fascinating, Northern Pride roams freely across the north of England, as John Grundy shares his enthusiasm for the humble and humdrum as well as the more conventionally beautiful. From the soaring beauty of Durham Cathedral - voted the best building in the world in a recent poll of architects - to the chippy in the high street, this book is a wonderful celebration of the north and its unique architectural heritage.
