Summary "Account of a Tour in Normandy, Volume 2" by Dawson Turner is a historical account written in the early 19th century. The work comprises a series of letters detailing the author's journey through Normandy, with a focus on investigating the architectural antiquities of the region, while also touching upon its history, landscape, and inhabitants. At the start of the book, Turner addresses his observations from the town of Ducler, highlighting its historical significance as a center of religious architecture. He describes the surrounding ecclesiastical sites, particularly emphasizing the Abbey of St. Georges de Bocherville, and its architectural details that showcase the beauty and craftsmanship of Norman architecture. Turner shares vivid imagery and historical anecdotes regarding the abbey's foundation, its notable patrons, and the various transformations it has undergone over the centuries, setting the stage for his explorations of other significant sites in the region.
