[Melody Schwarting · Rating 3 out of 5]

A helpful resource for illustrations and definitions of European architectural terms. Useful to have in hand when reading books about architecture. The sentences are old-fashioned and somewhat hard for the non-architect to follow, but still enjoyable for the interested contemporary reader.
