Abstract
THE first stone of the campanile of Pisa was laid in August, 1174, by Bonanno of Pisa and William of Innsbruck, but accounts given us by various authors are very conflicting and uncertain in regard to the construction of this splendid work of art, which, after being interrupted several times, was completed nearly two centuries later.
