Description:
Maurice Craig's book is a remarkable work of scholarship which analyses the design and layout of over one hundred classic Irish houses of the middle size, piecing together the evidence of how and when they were constructed. It is a much needed historical survey of a disappearing heritage. It is also a loving record, in photographs and measured drawings, which enables travellers in rural Ireland to look with fresh appreciation at the many intriguing, and often quite isolated and hence little know, country houses whose nobility of craftmanship and design still speaks across centuries of very variable fortune.
