Więcej o książce
Britain has more historic houses, great and small, that are open to the public than anywhere else in the world. Stately homes, ruined castles and abbeys, merchants' mansions, peasant cottages - the stories of such buildings and their occupants, past and present, add up to an extraordinary record of our history.Author Simon Jenkins is a leading writer on this rich heritage. Here we present his vision of the 86 most impressive, interesting or unusual dwellings to be seen in Berkshire, London and Surrey - from palatial Windsor Castle and Syon House in the west to aristocratic Apsley, the medieval Tower and the Art Deco palace at Eltham - all enhanced with photographs selected by the editors of Reader's Digest.
