''Wood Carvings In English Churches, Part 1: Misericords'' is a book written by Francis Bond in 1910. The book focuses on the intricate and beautiful wood carvings found in English churches, specifically misericords. Misericords are small wooden seats that are attached to the underside of folding seats in churches. They were designed to provide a place for the clergy to rest during long services, but also allowed them to lean against the misericord and appear to be standing. The book contains detailed descriptions and photographs of the misericords found in various English churches, highlighting their unique designs and historical significance. Bond also provides a brief history of the development of misericords and their place in English church architecture. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of English churches, woodcarving, or medieval art.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
