CONTENTS AND DESCRIPTION

An immense work, of which this is just one volume. A sort of 19th century 'Doomsday Book' of many of the fine stately homes in the British Isles. The separate text which accompanies the engravings gives the name of the then owner, his genealogy, a description of the Estate, the contents of the house, including in many cases, an inventory of the principal works of art.
