The diverse works of architect Nicholas Hawksmoor ranged from small architectural details to ambitious urban plans. This book presents a fresh view of Hawksmoor's built and planned work. It explains why his buildings look the way they do, what contemporary events influenced his work, and how such ancient buildings as Solomon's temple inspired him.
