The countryside, towns, and cities of Britain are full of churches. They represent some of the most iconic, beautiful, and occasionally bizarre buildings in the country. They have a lot to say about our history, our art and our ideas. But how do you read them? Through charming illustrations, 'Rice's Church Primer' reveals the basic grammar and vocabulary of church architecture throughout the United Kingdom.
