Two things I love – hunting for interesting things in junk/collectible/antique shops and finding history/art books. So, in over six months, I have hunted down the following lovelies that I have been looking for for a while:
- Mark Girouard, Life in the English Country House & The Victorian Country House
- Stella Tillyard, Citizen Lord (First edition!)
- Eugenie Fraser, The House by the Dvina & A Home by the Hooghly
- Colin Thompson, Pictures for Scotland: National Gallery of Scotland and its Collection
- Christy Bing, The Lairds of Arbuthnott
- Richard Taylor, How to Read Churches
- Alison Weir, Katherine Swynford
- Ronald Pearsall, Table-Rappers: The Victorians and the Occult
- Leonardo da Vinci 1989 Exhibition Catalogue
- Margaret Whinney, English Sculpture 1720-1830
- Jan Marsh, The Venetian Empire
- Titian Exhibition Catalogue
- Paintings from the Royal Collection
- The Edwardian Country House
- Plumb and Wheldon, Royal Heritage
- Marghanita Laski, Jane Austen and Her World
- Phyllis Bentley, The Brontes and Their World
- Arthur Foss, Country House Treasures
- Susan Lasdun, Victorians at Home
- Duchess of Devonshire, Chatsworth the House
That’s without the novels of course!
