Susan Maclean explores the life and architectural legacy of Frederick de Jersey Clere through the churches he designed across New Zealand. His work ranges from prominent Wellington buildings to churches in smaller towns and rural settings throughout the lower North Island and beyond. Photographs, historical material and descriptions draw attention to the design of individual buildings and their place in the wider Gothic tradition. Maclean sets the churches within the context of Clere's professional career, personal interests and other architectural work, revealing the breadth of his contribution. The book offers readers interested in New Zealand heritage an illustrated account of an architect whose buildings remain part of the landscape.
