"England has, indeed, reason to be proud of her Homes, and it has been a pleasant and loving task to describe and illustrate some of them in these volumes ... These notices were prepared for, and originally appeared in, the Art journal, but they have been rearranged, here and there rewritten, and in every case materially added to."--Introd., p. [v]-vi.

"Illustrated with one hundred and seventy engravings on wood."

Includes index.

On spine: "2".

Rewritten from material which originally appeared in the Art journal.
