Review: The best of all my books on this subject - I'm enchanted by this book. Of the half dozen or so books I already own dealing with English country houses this I believe will be my favorite. There's a lovely homey and inviting feel to this book, which I think is at least partially due to its very large format which makes all the photos, and especially of the interiors, a pleasure to view. I can almost imagine that I'm inside this book, a part of all the interesting and beautiful homes featured therein with such clarity and beautiful color and detail. The lighting is especially good, which is a lack I felt in others of its kind, where many of the rooms seem to be in shadow or taken on a very overcast day. All in all, a book very worthy of its price and a very happy addition to my library.
Review: The English Country House - This is a brilliant book detailing a vast array of stunning English Country Houses. The houses are nothing short from being exceptional. All the major architectural styles are richly illustrated with gorgeous full page color photos. The photos also reveal the beautiful decorative elements and each property has both exterior and interior shots. The text is also very informative and easy to follow giving just the right amount of information regarding the property and its historical and architectural significance. There are also several short chapters written by expert scholars discussing the unique architectural and decorative motifs which distinguish the English country house. This is a highly recommended book for anyone interested in fine architecture and beautiful photography.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great books used as well as new!
*by D***T on July 19, 2025*

It was quite big, quite heavy, quite beautiful and quite expensive but worth every penny. My friend's estate in England is featured in it, so I had to buy it! I couldn't afford full price, but there is an option on Amazon to buy used books so that is what I did. It came in excellent shape.
