A very scarce binding containing three complete volumes of the very desirable New-York Ecclesiologist, the very first architectural publication produced in America. It contains a wealth of material by and about early important architects, New York history, ecclesiastical controversies of the day [especially as it relates to the architectural cultus], etc.
Not even a single volume on the market anywhere else.
