Houses and Gardens
By E.L. Lutyens
Described and criticised by LAWRENCE WEAVER
This book is lavishly illustrated with photographs of about eighty of Sir Edwin Lutyens’ most typical houses and gardens, many of which have never previously been published. Interspersed in the text is a large number of plans, and there is an appendix of 22 pages giving a valuable series of scale drawings of typical buildings.
The Manchester Guardian says: “It is only when we see a publication such as this that we realize what quality characterizes some of the building of to-day. Abundantly and splendidly illustrated, this book shows the work of a great master, whose influence is even greater than his most enthusiastic admirers can appreciate.”
