Mike Harding Books

Presenting a selection of the most fascinating manifestations of misericords this collection explains the background and meaning behind each subject in text and illustrations.

It was never meant to be something you went camping in. But over 70 years since a British major persuaded the Volkswagen car factory to reopen and produce vehicles for a war-ravaged Germany, that is exactly what this vehicle has become best known for. Now, Mike Harding - self-confessed 'Camper Van nut' and owner of his own Danbury conversion called Molly - charts the surprising cultural history of a motoring institution which has become both an unassuming member of the family and the ultimate symbol of the freedom of the open road. Come along for the ride and discover the history of one of the most iconic, treasured, and damn-near indestructible vehicles ever made.

This series of beautifully produced small books is intended to be an introduction to the often hidden worlds that lie within the great churches and cathedrals of the British Isles, Ireland, and Europe. Mike Harding presents a selection of the most fascinating manifestations of green men, gargoyles, misericords, and stained glass, explaining the background and meaning behind each subject in text and illustrations.
