Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Handbook of Architectural Styles: Translated From the German
The present volume, an English translation of a. Hand-book of Architectural Styles, well known and appreciated in Germany, deserves the attention of those many English readers for whom the study of architecture possesses attractions. Its claims rest partly on the comprehensive range which the Author has taken, and the large amount of information which he has been able to condense into small compass; but chie?y in the fact that a familiar subject is here looked at from what, at least to the English readers, may now be called an almost new point of View.
