Reviews for Princeton and the Gothic Revival: 1870-1930
"This is a well-researched and richly-illustrated study of a pioneering glass manufacturer whose main years of production coincided with a formative phase in the history of American stained glass. Patriquin and Sloan have jointly organized their data in a commendably readable and attractive form."
