★★★★★
Despite loving David Macaulay's PBS programs Castle and Cathedral since childhood, I had never read this book until now. The programs followed me through my education from elementary school to community college and I later bought them on DVD so I could continue watching them at home and share them with my children. His drawing style influenced my own, which I believe later influenced my daughter's. ⬇️

bibliothecarivs I had the opportunity to meet Macaulay after a lecture at Utah State University in October, 2014 and he was as smart, kind, and creative as I always thought he was. He not only signed our copy of Cathedral, but he also left an original drawing on the title page. I'll treasure it forever. 2y
Bookwomble What a fantastic memory, and wonderful to have a drawing made for you by someone you admired and was such an influence 💖 2y

Nancy: "I really like the drawings in this book. It's about a castle and how everything functions inside it. My favorite part is reading about the architecture, like the layout and the foundation. I've never been to a castle before. I'd like to see one - any castle would be great."

josie281 We have this one. It's fantastic. 8y
