Reader's note

A wonderful First Edition of British Architects and Craftsmen by Sacheverell Sitwell. This book is a survey of taste, design, and style during three centuries from 1600 to 1830. First published to great critical acclaim in 1945 by including not only Sir Christopher Wren, Sir John Vanbrugh, William Kent and other great English architects, but also the craftsmen - the clockmakers, the silversmiths, the bookbinders, and the weavers of tapestry - he gives a remarkable and complete picture of this period. Sitwell recalls the period with vivid and penetrating insight. Now recognised as a classic, considered by many to be the finest of Sitwell's books about art history. This fantastic edition is illustrated throughout with 200 black and white photographs, prints and drawings including a full-colour frontispiece. A gem among a bounty of out of print, rare and stunning vintage books on our second hand bookstore.
