Stone Scarecrows: The Gargoyle Grimoire
A Field Guide to Pittsburgh's Gargoyles and Grotesques
They perch on buildings. They watch from corners. They guard the city from above.
Pittsburgh is a city built on steel, stone, and secrets. And hidden in plain sight?on churches, office buildings, bridges, and homes?are the gargoyles and grotesques that have watched over the city for over a century.
Stone Scarecrows is your guide to these stone sentinels. Part field guide, part scavenger hunt, part history lesson, this book takes you on a journey through Pittsburgh's architectural oddities.
Perfect for history buffs, architecture lovers, urban explorers, and anyone who's ever looked up and wondered, "What is that thing?"
