Extremely detailed and helpful, without the wider detail about patrons and other examples of the work of the Carver's that can be found in the book. I find the suggestion that Hugh might have been a templar persuasive . Would he have shown the design to Spanish Masons or would Masons he met on a trip to San Diego have worked on other pilgrimage routes? I also like the "at the fair" grouping and the wrestlers. Thanks, James for all your splendid work.
