Description: "Westminster Abbey is one of Britain's greatest medieval buildings, with a history stretching back over a thousand years. Founded as a Benedictine monastery in the mid-tenth century, it was a royal foundation from the beginning and still has the shrine of its principal royal founder, St Edward the Confessor, at its heart. This is also the nation's coronation church where, since 1066, monarchs have been crowned amid great splendour. The present Abbey church, begun by Henry III in 1245, was planned with that in mind and is a treasure house of architectural and artistic achievement. Treasures of Westminster Abbey celebrates an iconic building and its rich artistic heritage. Many of the most significant individuals in British history feature in the text: royalty and aristocracy, clergy and politicians, writers, scientists and musicians. Lavishly illustrated, it also showcases the stained glass, furniture, sculpture, textiles, wall paintings and many other historic artefacts found within this remarkable church and its precincts." -- with a bonus offer-- . 2008.
