On page 3 the Church of St. Peter at Rome is
described as the " ugliest of the buildings raised in
Europe before the nineteenth century." As if this
were not enough, we read of it a few iines further
on as the church which " still curses the mightiest
city of the world." The present volume contains
much iike extravagant denunciation. The most
interesting of the papers to us is that entitled
"The InHuence of Building Materials upon Archi-
tecture," and that " On the External Coverings of
Roofs." We note with profound approval that the
bad roof-coverings include " miiled lead, mechani-
cally-made tiles, Welsh blue slates (one of the
greatest curses of the age), and corrugated gaiva-
nised iron and zinc (now spreading like a pestilence
over the country)." Here we are heart and soul
with Mr. William Morris's " best bad language."
