How to Read a Country House ~ Jeremy Musson

A good clean copy of “How to Read a Country House”, by Jeremy Musson in association with Country Life, published by Random House in 2007. The country houses of England are an essential part of the English physical and cultural landscape. By reading the architectural features of such houses ~ even simple clues like windows, doors, chimneys and staircases ~ we can see how and when they were conceived and how they then evolved. Interiors as well as exteriors, have a story to tell ~ the arrangement and contents reveal much about the people who lived in them. Hard covers, some 272 pages, black and white and full colour illustrations, original dust jacket.
