"Ewerby is a magnificent specimen of a Flowing Middle-Pointed
Church. It is most perfectly measured and described: one
can follow the most recondite beauties of the construction,
mouldings and joints, in these Plates, almost as well as in
the original structure. Such a monograph as this will be of
incalculable value to the architects of our Colonies or
the United States, who have no means of access to ancient
churches. The Plates are on stone, done with remarkable skill
and distinctness. Of Heckington we can only say that the
perspective view from the south-east presents a very vision
of beauty; we can hardly conceive anything more perfect.
We heartily recommend this series to all who are able to
patronize it."--_Ecclesiologist_, Oct. 1849.
"This, if completed in a similar manner to the Parts now out,
will be a beautiful and valuable work. The perspective of St.
Andrew's, Heckington, is a charming specimen of lithography,
by Hankin. We unhesitatingly recommend Messrs. Bowman and
Crowther's work to our readers, as likely to be useful to
them."--_Builder_, Sept. 29. 1849.
"The fourth and fifth parts of Messrs. Bowman and Crowther's
'Churches of the Middle Ages' are published, and fully support
our very favourable impression of the work. As a text-book,
this work will be found of the greatest value."--_Builder_,
Jan. 19. 1850.
