book is only half the work, for the Catalogue and Appendices, some 246 pages of them, are only available on the internet. Here, the Catalogue lists alphabetically all the Yorkshire effigies with analytical details and dates and good quality colour photographs of each sculpture. This is invaluable and essential material for both the general reader and the specialist. The seven appendices are literally packed with fascinating information, but they are consigned to a website, accessible easily perhaps to those accustomed to e-reading, but not perhaps to the more general reader or to those taking the book with them on site visits. Moreover, digital sources lack the longevity of the printed word. Although one understands the financial constraints that will have influenced the decision to split the book, less academically inclined readers might well have preferred the printed work to be the raw data rather than the technical discussion. However, it is a minor caveat. The printed volume does offer a distribution map as end paper and a summary listing of the effigies. Overall then, this is a highly important and rich study, superbly researched by the authors and finely produced in a fitting manner by the publishers, allowing for the caveat. It certainly deserves to be on the shelves of all those interested in the monumental effigies of Yorkshire and beyond, a worthy and essential addition to any library of medieval subjects.

民族认同与英苏边境 1552-1652

本书只是工作的一半,对于目录和附录,其中大约 246 页,只能在互联网上找到。在这里,目录按字母顺序列出了所有约克郡雕像,并附有分析细节和日期以及每个雕塑的高质量彩色照片。这对普通读者和专家来说都是非常宝贵和必不可少的材料。这七个附录确实充满了引人入胜的信息,但它们被放在一个网站上,对于那些习惯于电子阅读的人来说,可能很容易访问,但对于更一般的读者或那些随身携带本书进行现场访问的人来说,可能无法访问。此外,数字资源缺乏印刷文字的寿命。尽管人们了解会影响拆分本书的决定的财务限制,不太喜欢学术的读者很可能更喜欢印刷作品是原始数据而不是技术讨论。但是,这是一个小警告。印刷的卷确实提供了分布图作为结束纸和肖像的摘要列表。总的来说,这是一项非常重要和丰富的研究,作者进行了出色的研究,出版商以合适的方式精心制作,允许警告。它当然值得所有对约克郡及其他地区的不朽雕像感兴趣的人的书架上,这是任何中世纪主题图书馆的有价值且必不可少的补充。总的来说,这是一项非常重要和丰富的研究,作者进行了出色的研究,出版商以合适的方式精心制作,允许警告。它当然值得所有对约克郡及其他地区的不朽雕像感兴趣的人的书架上,这是任何中世纪主题图书馆的有价值且必不可少的补充。总的来说,这是一项非常重要和丰富的研究,作者进行了出色的研究,出版商以合适的方式精心制作,允许警告。它当然值得所有对约克郡及其他地区的不朽雕像感兴趣的人的书架上,这是任何中世纪主题图书馆的有价值且必不可少的补充。
