Book Reviews of The Stained Glass of William Morris and his Circle (Studies in British Art)Book Review: The definitive book about Morris glass Summary: 5 Stars
This 2-volume set of books is the result of over 20 years of painstaking research by A.C.Sewter. Windows are listed and cross-referenced by location, by subject, by designer and by date. Works catalogued include not only those in the UK but, where Sewter could find them, also examples from around the world. In addition to the catalogue itself Sewter also writes an excellent and scholarly introduction. One volume contains mostly illustrations - some in colour but the majority in black and white. An excellent book and an essential read for any serious student of stained glass of the Victorian era. It should be noted that one volume has been out of print for some time and can only be obtained in used form.
