The book is the first to deal comprehensively with this subject. The range covered extends from the first use of glass for lighting in the late 17th century until towards the end of the 19th century. It deals with the evolution of chandelier design and technique, hanging attribution and dating, with special emphasis on the few documented examples known. It is fully illustrated with up to 150 examples included.Pick up the illustrated guide-book to any country house open to the public and, if the furnishings include a chandelier, it is likely to be wrongly described. For several years the author has been able to advise the National Trust in this field and corrections have been made when guides have been re-printed. The present book is intended to correct mis-attributions and mis-apprehensions and provide some history. It deals with advances in style and technique as these evolve under various, mostly chronological headings. There are all too few documented chandeliers surviving, but most are included in as much detail as it has been possible to find.The field is narrow, but those who visit the great houses and public buildings in this country will be able to enjoy with greater knowledge the great lustres which survive and discriminate to a degree between good and bad.

From the Coffin sets of the 1870s to the Princess phones of the 1960s and beyond, this book explores the technology and the history of the telephone. Because the Bell Company was the "sole source" for much telephone technology until very recently, much of the public access to this information has been quite limited. This definitive work will end much uncertainty by providing a vast amount of information never before published.Design changes are carefully chronicled with 350 color photographs. Here is detailed information which will help identify a piece and will take the guess work out of dating equipment. For those who are restoring a telephone and would like to ensure its historical accuracy, this book will make it easy to match pieces correctly. Price: $29.95 |
