Robert Irving and John Kinstler, two architectural historians, have chosen 21 of the most distinctive Australian historical houses in Sydney. The houses included reflect the city's eclectic culture and nonconformist style. The book covers: the Gothic dignity of Vaucluse House, The Abbey at Annandale, the classic Georgian simplicity and grace of The Judge's House in the City, the Duncan House in Castlecrag, Harry Seidler's own house, and Ken Woolley's award winning house at Paddington completed in 1980. Also tells the story of the architects and owners of these fine houses which makes the book a human interest story as well as one of architectural fascination. Max Dupain's photos create unforgettable images of these fine homes.
