Escape into the pages!, February 9, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Great Escapes: Inspirational Homes in Stunning Locations (Hardcover)
This book takes to over twenty residences in a variety of settings. The author has divided them into five categories: rural, waterside, mountain and hillside, woodland and urban escapes. Each residence is shown with several luscious photographs and accompanied by copy describing various aspects of the owners idea of an escape, details of the restoration or building and descriptions of the residence itself. My one complaint was that it seemed a bit uneven with regard to depth of coverage given to each residence. The layout includes larger photos with lots of thumbnail photos, making it a jam-packed feast for the eyes without being busy. The photos are so lovely you can almost fall into the pages in a dream

Stunning and visually pleasing to every eye!, December 1, 2000
This review is from: Great Escapes: Inspirational Homes in Stunning Locations (Hardcover)
GREAT coffee table book, or just to look through and DREAM of being able to "escape" to one of these havens. The photographs are so full of detail you can practically feel yourself sinking into the pillows.
Helpful information with each entry as well; all in all, very well worth the cost...
