Summary "The Cathedrals of Northern France" by Francis Miltoun is a comprehensive travelogue and architectural study written in the early 20th century. This work delves into the historical and artistic aspects of the grand cathedrals located in northern France, showcasing their architectural significance and cultural context. The volume is richly illustrated, featuring plans and diagrams that aim to enhance the reader's understanding of these monumental structures. At the start of the book, the author introduces the complexities involved in writing about architectural and historical subjects, suggesting that a mere recounting of journeys may not suffice to capture the grandeur of the cathedrals. The opening sections lay a foundation for further explorations, highlighting the distinct Gothic styles that evolved in northern France while acknowledging influential factors such as regional characteristics and historical events. Miltoun sets the stage for a detailed exploration of notable cathedrals, beginning with the transitional styles of churches in Soissons, Noyon, and Laon, emphasizing their architectural significance within the broader evolution of Gothic architecture.
