"The illustrations reproduce in great measure the chief objects
of interest in the Minster, whether in Sculptured Tomb, Effigy,
or 'Storied Window.' One section is of surpassing interest, the
Military Memorials in which the Minster is so rich. The Dean has
done his work in a scholarly and interesting fashion."--_York
Herald._
"'Walks round York Minster' is a book that will endure. The last
work by the Dean will always find a welcome wherever people may
be found who love the Minster."--_Yorkshire Post._
