Unlike furniture, when wallpaper goes out of fashion it is stripped off or covered up, so it disappears. But when wallpapers survive, they provide an important look at the tastes and styles of the past inhabitants of a building. This book contains a look at many of the styles of wall paper, as well as the history, design, manufacture, sale, and use of British wallpaper. Also included is advice on locating and dating historic wallpapers, and a selective list of places where historic wallpapers can be seen in their original settings.
