The Great Houses of London is an account of extraordinary buildings, most of which no longer exist, of such great designers as Robert Adam, and if the enormously rich English aristocrats grandees who commissioned these houses. When Queen Victoria remarked to her neighbor, the Duchess of Sutherland, "I have come from my house to your palace," she was by no means exaggerating. The palaces of the nobility were second only to churches in architectural and aesthetic significance, and defied comparison with the châteaux of France or the palazzi of Venice. Filled with astonishing French and English furniture, generally equipped with a large private picture gallery to display priceless paintings bought on the Grand Tour, staffed by between 50 and 60 servants, these houses expressed the taste and aspirations of a single person, and usually one rich and powerful enough to have his own way. A distinguished designer, large rooms for entertaining formally, an imposing façade to impress passers by and visitors were the background for the endless balls and costume and garden parties, and formal dinners that made the dazzling London "Season" one of the high points for European royalty and society from June through August. This book, the only publications on a fascinating subject, covers some 40 major home and 100 lesser ones, starting in the 13th century in the walled city of London and moving on to the then suburbs of Bloomsbury, Holborn, Soho, Piccadilly and St. James, finishing in Park Lane from which the aristocrats were driven by the noises of motor traffic. This is a book that will fascinate architects, decorators, Anglophiles and social historians.

Item is not sent out as described
This item is not sent out as described. I only received 1 pack, instead of 6. Tried to explain that 5 were missing and received a replacement order of 1 pack. Very overpriced for a single pack.

Premium Cotton Rounds
These are great cotton rounds, because they don't shed. I use them on my eyes twice a day, morning and night.

Good for your teeth
These are great tasting and good for your teeth. Was recommended by my dentist after lifesavers damaged my teeth. A little spendy but worth it if you enjoy hard candy.

Tasty sugar free treat!
My sister is about to begin chemotherapy and her oncologist shared that hard sugar free candies that contain xylitol would be very helpful with the dry mouth chemo is likely to create. I ordered these for her and she says they are delicious! Good natural fruit flavor…tasty for anyone who wants a better quality, healthier (in moderation) sweet treat now and then. Arrived promptly and container was undamaged.
