Pub Date: Oct. 29th, 1968

The eminent author puts it well: ""the story of the development of sophisticated housing seen through thirty-six examples of the best."" Nicolson, who has served in Parliament (People and Parliament) and who lives in a Tudor castle (Great Houses Of Britain), offers an incisive and highly readable study of the development of architectural and living styles in Europe arid its influence on America.
