IF YOU LOVE DRIVIN AROUND LOOKIN AT OLD PEOPLES HOUSES THEN THIS BOOK IS FOR YOU,PAL!LOTSA COOL PICTURES TO LOOK AT FOR WHEN ITS RAINING OR SOMETHING AND YOU CANT GO OUT AND STUFF.THE WORDS IN THE BOOK ARE PRETTY COOL TOO!I LEARNED A LOT!HOO BOY! ITS ALSO A PRETTY CHEAP BOOK TOO WHICH HELPS,YA KNOW.OH WELL,I LIKED IT.A LOT!
The subject of this volume, crisply handled, is a magnificent one, as any reader who has seen a great house will attest. The handling of the subject, smoothly touched, is a testament to clear, concise journalism.
This book has lovely photos but absolutly no depth. It is really not much more than a magazine article and definitly not for anyone who has a serious interest in the period.
