Among the historic buildings of London, few hold a history as unique as the former Charterhouse of the Salutation of the Mother of God. This book explores the architectural evolution of the monastery. Within its cloisters and cells lived those English Carthusians who would later be recognized as martyrs. And although their martyrdom was carried out elsewhere, it was here that they prepared themselves to give their lives for what they believed to be just.
