From Library Journal
"There is nothing quite like the English country house anywhere else in the world," the author proudly proclaims in this 1940 volume. Sackville-West here offers a history of British country homes presented in her own poetic style. The text is also buttressed with numerous color and black-and-white illustrations. Though not essential, this is a sweet little book nonetheless.
