Summary: Delightful Overview of English Country Architecture
Review: Vita Sackville-West gives us a delightful overview of the architecture of English country homes. She speaks with intimate familiarity of most of the major houses and with a clear point of view. Ms. Sackville-West is a wonderful, entertaining writer. The book is a must if you intend to visit English country homes. Even if you don't plan a trip to England, the book is a joy to read and helps you to view the residential architecture around you more clearly.
