The Building of the English Country House, 1660-1880 by Richard Wilson
Looks at the building of English country houses as a whole in the two centuries after 1660. This book shows why owners embarked on building schemes, often following the Grand Tour or excursions around other houses in England; where they looked for architectural inspiration and assistance; and how the building work was actually done and its costs.
Richard Wilson is Reader in History at the University of East Anglia, UK. Alan Mackley is an authority on the economic history of country house building.
