Rickman's 1881 London study of English architecture from the Conquest to the Reformation, edited by John Henry Parker with plates by Le Keux and Cattermole, was written for students and antiquaries. Its pictures are measured architectural elevations of arches, windows, and column bases, with mouldings and plans beside them, giving designers clear models of Norman and Gothic tracery, pointed arches and clustered shafts.
