Handbook to the cathedrals of England
A Victorian guidebook to English cathedrals, written by R. J. King and published in London by John Murray in 1869, aimed at visitors and church-architecture readers. Its plates show Chester Cathedral's chapter house entrance, chapter house interior, a canopied stone sedilia, and a choir aisle with carved wooden stalls and figured panels, drawn in fine black-line engraving that a designer could draw on for Gothic arch, vault, and tracery patterns.
