BETWEEN DEVOTION AND DESIGN
The architecture of John Cyril Hawes 1876-1956
by John J Taylor
Published by University of Western Australia Press
Extract from the judges comments~
"BETWEEN DEVOTION AND DESIGN might seem to be an
unusual choice as Australian Christian
Book of the Year, but this book has standards of excellence
which separates it from the other
books submitted, both in the quality of its production
and in its literary merit. It also makes a
unique contribution not just on the Australian literary
stage but internationally, in the intersection
of architecture and Christian faith: a contribution
on at least three levels; to Christian art, to
Australian history, and to Australian Christian biography".
