Publisher: Little Toller Books
Free delivery available · Amazon buyer protection
King of Dust is a craftsman's personal journey through the landscapes of ancient sculpture which first inspired him to pick up tools. From the grandeur of Exeter cathedral to the strangeness of the font at Toller Fratrum in Dorset, this journey through the Romanesque celebrates the lives of medieval carvers and contemporary stonemasons.
Interwoven with the author's own life as he slowly becomes a stonemason, this is a warm and intimate exploration of forgotten craftsmanship and the enduring power of stone.
This is the paperback edition of the much-praised hardback.
