Excerpt from Notre Dame De Paris: A Short History Description of the Cathedral, With Some Account of the Churches Which Preceded It
The task of writing an account of the cathedral of Notre Dame is materially lightened by the minute details of its history and architecture to be found in the various writings of M. Viollet-le-duc, of which, unfortunately, the Library of the British Museum does not contain a complete set. The Description cz'e Nutre Dame, published in 1856 by M. De Guilhermy in conjunction with M. Viollet-le-duc, contains much useful material, while the splendidly illustrated account of the church in the first volume of Paris d travers [es Age: is full of interesting archaeological particulars As the numerous other authorities which have been used are quoted in the text, it is unnecessary to enumerate them here. The writer has found Mr. Charles Herbert Moore's Develop ment of Got/zit Arr/zz'fecmre useful in not a few difiicult matters. He wishes specially to thank Mr. Edward Bell for.
