Summary: Fabulous book, fabulous bargain
Review: Having borrowed this book over and over from the library, I really had a hard time parting with it when I last returned it. The photographs are splendid, a joy to look at. Since it also qualifies as a reference book, I looked it up ..... to but [buy] a copy but was certain price would be ... more than in was. Now I'm about to by my third copy --it is an amazing bargain.

Summary: Big beautiful book! Coffee table caliber.
Review: I first discovered this book in the library and I checked it out several times because I just loved looking at it so much. The pictures are so breathtaking, it increased my resolved to go to Europe and visit all these incredible places first hand. It's a great thourough book for anyone who is new to Gothic art forms as well as a visual reference for people who are already familiar with the style. Hard to carry around, but very easy to read!

Summary: Great purchase
Review: I found the book superb. As a lover of Gothic arquitecture, I buyed it recently and I found lots of great color photographs, really interesting texts as they have been written by german experts, and more surprising, with an excellent price/quality ratio. After buying this book, I have completed the series buying the books dedicated to Romanesque, Baroque and Renaissance. All of them are really fantastic.

Summary: Absolutely Incredible!!
Review: I have been looking for this book for ages! I have had all of the other books for a while and thought that "Gothic" was beyond me. Now I'm glad that I kept looking. I know that there are other books out there on the Gothic period, but none of them are as well-done as this one. Usually you would spend twice as much to get a book of this caliber in your library. The photographs and text perfectly compliment one another. This book delivers far more than I ever expected.

Summary: Awesome book for little money
Review: I ordered this book for 20 pounds and what I received was much beyond my expections: a huge book (27x32x5 cm) with many high gorgious pictures on high quality paper, and many articles written by specialists (mostly Germans). It focuses mainly on architecture, but has also some sections on sculpture, painting, miniatures, stained glass, jewelry, etc. This may be a good book for making a present to someone, of having them fall in love with the gothic style?
