About the Book
Gargoyles have been a subject of fascination since their first appearance (traditionally) on the Gothic Cathedrals of 12th Century France. Gothic architecture and gargoyles spread throughout Europe before coming to America in the late 1800s and are now peppered throughout the fabric of our lives…if one knows where to look. The Gargoyles and Grotesques of the Ohio River Valley is a visual and informative tour of the gargoyles and grotesques along the Ohio River including the cities of Pittsburgh, PA, Cincinnati, OH, Louisville, KY and Covington, KY. Along the way, gargoyle history, folklore and legend will inform and entertain the reader as he or she learns where to look to find these often hidden masterpieces of art and architecture.

About the Author
	Although the muse of the novel has preoccupied much of his writing endeavors, Daniel has increasingly found the need to research, photograph, write and commune with gargoyles across the country. He has writing and photography credits in many magazines and websites on the topic of gargoyles and other subjects.
