In Tiers of Glory
By Michael S. Rose
"One who deserves credit for promoting the new renaissance in sacred architecture, as well as for the burgeoning Catholic-preservation movement, is critic and author Michael S. Rose," wrote Duncan Stroik, the editor of Sacred Architecture. Nothing illustrates this more than Rose's latest book, In Tiers of Glory, which is both a lovely tribute to the physical beauty and awe of the old Catholic churches, as well as a lesson in what the banal, uninspiring and sometimes ugly churches of today lack. But Michael Rose insists that Catholics need not simply endure the blunders of today. Rose tells us how the Church can restore continuity with the great churches of the past—and why it is crucial to do so. ATTENTION HOMESCHOOLERS: In Tiers of Glory makes a wonderful resource for teaching children art and church history. Glossary of the Church architectural terms Lavishly illustrated with 199 photos and drawings- 186 in full color. Large quality softcover.
