About This Item
New Haven, Conn: Yale University Press, 1984. First paperback edition. Softcover. VG- (Slight soiling or aging to cover; small soil mark on edge of book block; interior surfaces are clean.). Color pictorial wraps, xvi, 250 pp., 214 BW & color illus. "Describes the 'Queen Anne' movement in all its manifestations, tracing its origin in the 1860s, the spread of its subsequent vogue from London to the provinces, and from England to America, and its fall from grace in the 1890s, when it was taken up by the architects of pubs and waterside villas. In doing so [the author] does more than chart the style for the first time: he also throws light on an important segment of English life in the last decades of the nineteenth century." (back cover).
