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."-- ER -
