Here’s a great little book that I found the other day.  It’s called ‘Lakeland Country Churches: A Visitor’s Guide’, and it does exactly what it says on the cover, including over 100 entries describing the location and history of the churches, along with their architectural features.

It is written by Sheila Ricketts, and beautifully illustrated (with about 50 images) by the artist Edmund Blood, who’s work I think is fabulous (http://www.edmundblood-art.co.uk/index.htm).  Sadly, and quite bizarrely given the poor nature of many of the Lakeland books around, the book only had one print run.  Even more sadly, Edmund Blood died about 7 years ago.

This is signed by the author (no inscription, dated June 5, 1994), and is in a virtually unread condition.  Certainly VG+.  Available from us for only £11 plus £2 p&p (UK).
