Book Description
Editorial Reviews
Review
Drawings, photos and explanations of Victorian decorating styles blend in an excellent review of particular styles from a variety of movements. Sections cover different room treatments and make it easy for interior designers to locate specific information, but it's the history and detail which sets this apart from competing titles. -- Midwest Book Review
