""The Tower, The Temple, And The Minster"" is a historical and biographical book written by John Wesley Thomas in 1873. The book explores the fascinating associations of three of the most iconic landmarks in London - the Tower of London, St. Paul's Cathedral, and Westminster Abbey. The author delves into the rich and complex history of these landmarks, providing readers with a detailed description of their architectural features, as well as the historical events and personalities that have shaped their existence. The Tower of London, for instance, is presented as a symbol of power and oppression, having served as a royal palace, a prison, and a place of execution. The author provides insight into the lives of notable figures who were imprisoned and executed in the Tower, including Anne Boleyn, Sir Thomas More, and Guy Fawkes. St. Paul's Cathedral, on the other hand, is presented as a symbol of resilience and hope, having survived the Great Fire of London and the Blitz during World War II. The author provides a detailed description of the cathedral's architecture, as well as the lives of notable figures associated with it, such as Sir Christopher Wren, who designed the cathedral, and Lord Nelson, whose funeral was held there. Westminster Abbey is presented as a symbol of tradition and continuity, having served as the coronation church of English monarchs since the 11th century. The author provides a detailed account of the coronation ceremonies that have taken place at the abbey, as well as the lives of notable figures buried there, including Isaac Newton, Charles Darwin, and Geoffrey Chaucer. Overall, ""The Tower, The Temple, And The Minster"" is a fascinating read for anyone interested in the history and culture of London. The book provides a comprehensive overview of three of the city's most iconic landmarks, and the historical events and personalities that have shaped their existence.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
