Recenzii
'John Adamson in Cambridge has produced and printed a handsome volume ... The index demonstrates the value of inventories for an understanding of the furnished interior'. John Harris, The Art Newspaper; 'This book is an important step in the wider recognition of archival studies in relation to the social and cultural history of England ... Murdoch provides succinct and helpful editorial and summary introductions for each inventory (with one provided for Drayton House by Bruce Bailey) ... The index is also invaluable and provides the key to comparing the houses'. Andrew Moore, The Burlington Magazine
