Excerpt from Description of the Exterior and Interior of the Cathedral of Milan
In presenting to a learned and intelligent public this new and condensed description of the Cathedral of Milan. I maintain that I do not wish to compete with works of greater merit that have been before offered to the public descriptive of this wonderful edifice. My intention is simply to offer alike to the curious and admiring traveller a small guide, devoid of minuter particulars, which have been already written by scientific and artistic men. I merely mention what work and riches are contained in this Cathedral and for any omissions I crave your indulgence.
