Macauley’s books combine detailed sketches and comprehensive text to detail how some of the world’s most astounding buildings have been constructed. After a lengthy authorial run spent meticulously studying the creation of monumental structures??among them an English castle, Egyptian pyramids, and a Roman city—Macaulay said he found in religious architecture a source of inspiration for Mosque...
