About this book

Masters of the Guild is a 1920 children's historical book by Louise Lamprey (1869-1951), the American writer who specialised in dramatising the working life of past centuries for young readers. Published by Frederick A. Stokes of New York, the book presents linked stories of the medieval craft guilds, following young apprentices and master craftsmen, the stonemasons, weavers, goldsmiths, and builders whose workshops made the cathedrals and towns of the Middle Ages, with verse interludes between the tales. Lamprey paired it with her earlier In the Days of the Guild, and the two volumes were standards of school and library shelves through the interwar years. Her books belong to the tradition that taught history through craft and daily work rather than kings and battles.
