"Buttress's pragmatic traditionalism has underpinned his work as a saviour of threatened buildings, sometimes putting him at odds with hardline preservationists. Surveyor of Westminster Abbey for more than a decade, he directed a major programme of repair and enrichment... In this book Kenneth Powell records a career that has encompassed work in historic houses and even a major development project in Canada. Butress's work is here celebrated and offered as an inspiration to future generations."-- Taken from dust jacket.
