Synopsis
This latest volume in the acclaimed Country Life series examines the English country house from 1800 to 1830, looking in turn at the buildings associated with the Prince Regent himself, from Brighton Pavilion to Buckingham Palace; at the houses of the aristocracy, such as Eastnor Castle and Goodwood; and at the homes of the gentry, including Southill in Befordshire and Luscombe in Devon. The architects whose work is featured in" The Regency Country House" include the Wyatt dynasty, Henry Holland, John Nash, C.R. Cockerell, Robert Smirke, William Wilkins, Thomas Hopper, Humphrey Repton, and Sir John Soane. The book also looks at important architectural themes of the period, from the development of the Greco-Roman style to the Gothic Revival and Picturesque. It is a breathtaking volume, illustrated with 200 color and duotone photographs. John Martin Robinson is a leading architectural historian, whose previous books include "The Wyatts: An Architectural Dynasty" and "The Country House at War.", The Regency Country House is the first book to provide a comprehensive survey of the key English country houses of 1800 to 1830. It is written by John Martin Robinson, leading architectural historian, herald, and librarian to the Duke of Norfolk, who is author of numerous books including Buckingham Palace the official illustrated history. This new book is divided into three parts: it looks at the princely palaces and houses associated with the Prince Regent, from Brighton Pavilion to Buckingham Palace, the nobleman's houses such as Tregothnan, Eastnor Castle and Goodwood and gentleman's houses such as Southill, Bedfordshire and Sheringham, Norfolk. The book will illustrate work by leading country houses architects including the Wyatt dynasty, Henry Holland, John Nash, Thomas Hopper, Humphry Repton and Sir John Soane - as well as regional designers such such as Dobson of Newcastle and Webster of Kendal.

She answered my questions promptly, sent me photos I requested and when the book arrived, on time, not only was it in excellent condition, but she had packaged it better than any item I can ever remember receiving in my many years of purchasing on Ebay! She also worked with me wonderfully on the price of the book that I purchased and there is not enough good that I can say about this seller! Thank you and please feel totally positive about any purchase! :-)

- s***m (4)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseGood experience communicating with the seller, value for money given that it's OOP, well packaged although a bit overkill with the amount of tape, but better safe than sorry. Great condition for a book that is like new and arguably in better shape than described. Timely shipping too. A great experience that I would absolutely do again.
