History And Landscape: The Guide To National Trust Properties In England, Wales and Northern Ireland - Softcover
The definitive illustrated guide to English heritage, History and Landscape celebrates the best of our historic houses, great gardens and stunning landscapes, through the Trust's unrivalled photographic collection and Lydia Greeves's imaginative and erudite text. The book showcases recent National Trust acquisitions such as the Gothic wonder of Tyntesfield in Somerset, John Lennon's childhood home Mendips, and William Morris's Arts & Crafts Red House in Kent.
A series of fourteen 'pictorial essays' is interwoven into the book. With subjects such as Dutch art, water in gardens, craftsmanship, early landscapes, or the work of Robert Adam, these link properties with common features, so enabling readers with a particular interest to organise their visits around these themes.
