About the A History of Architecture series: An on-going 25-volume series stretching from the earliest signs of settlement in the Euphrates and Jordan valleys to the stylistically and technologically sophisticated buildings of the present day. Each volume sets the buildings described and illustrated within their political, social and cultural contexts, exploring architecture not only as the development of form but as an expression of the civilizations within which it evolved. The series focuses on the story of the classical tradition from its origins in Mesopotamia and Egypt, through its seminal realization in Ancient Greece and Rome, to the Renaissance, neo-classicism, eclecticism, modernism and post-modernism. This thread is supplemented with excursions to Asia and the Islamic world. Great gifts; compact and collectable.

The series is written and photographed by Christopher Tadgell, who taught architectural history at the Kent Institute of Art and Design in Canterbury and has lectured widely in Britain and the USA. Among his publications are France: Baroque and Rococo Architecture and The History of Architecture in India.
These books are gorgeous: tiny, beautifully illustrated and so collectable. -- The Bookseller
