_In two large folio volumes, containing about 700 splendid illustrations, plans, and drawings. Full gilt edges._ =£8 8s.= _net; by post_ =£8 10s.= This important work forms a complete survey of the Architecture, Decoration, and Furniture of the famous Adelphi Brethren, and constitutes a monumental record of the Adam style. Although during the Greek and Gothic Revivals Adam architecture was freely destroyed, there still remains, as these volumes prove, a marvelous wealth of work, much of which is complete with the actual Furniture, Carpets, and Hangings made to his designs. No country in the world can show equivalent instances of such historical preservation as are illustrated in these magnificent volumes.
