Sobre este artículo
John Murray Publishers Ltd. Very Good/Very Good. 1991. First Edition. Hard Cover. 4to 0719549256 Dust jacket complete except price clipped. Black cloth boards with bright gilt titling on spine. Previous owner's neat inscription on ffep. Full page colour illustrations through out. From Tudor times to the present day, the story of a great country house unfolds. No dry history this, instead in John S. Goodall's exquisite pictures, banquets, balls, dinners and house parties spring to life; the everyday activities of the household bustle across the page. The changing fortunes of the house are intimately recorded, from destruction by fire and rebuilding, through Regency elegance and Victorian heyday, to wartime use and restoration in the twentieth century. Great Days of a Country House captures flawlessly the spirit of bygone eras in paintings of nostalgia and subtlety which show the unmistakable Goodall touch. This is a book to dip into, pore over and return to, and it cannot fail to give endless pleasure to people of all ages. .
