Goal Etsadings, and How to Enjoy Them : Norman Architecture.

By Edith Browne. (Land C. Black. Ss. 6d.)—This book is put together ina very sensible way. First COM illustrated explana- tions of architectural terms ; after this we get a short and sensibly written general study. More than half the volume is devoted to the illustrations of Norman buildings, which are excellent, and each example is faced with short notes, historical, architectural, and general. The book is not for the learned, but is a'good one for the lover of that Romanesque style brought to EnglaUd and France by the Normans.
