Understanding Architectural Drawings and Historical Visual Sources

In Historical Visual Sources: a guide to understanding the historic built environment the authors explain the provenance, purpose and terminology of a range of visual sources from the 16th to the 20th centuries, and how they can help - or sometimes hinder - an understanding of the original form and subsequent changes to a building, site or landscape. This book will be of particular interest to historic buildings professionals, archaeologists, conservation architects, students of architectural history, and those involved in the preparation of conservation plans.
