Misericords, the ledges or "mercy seats" provided for the comfort of the clergy while they sang the divine songs of the medieval Church, and the benches installed in parish churches in the later middle ages are a large proportion of the surviving medieval woodcarving in Britain. This book outlines the history of church seating, while considering the status of the craftsmen and the influences on their work, and then goes on to explain the subject matter for their drawings. It also features numerous detailed black & white photos of beautiful examples which combined with the informative text make for a very interesting read.
