Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from English Furniture Designers of the Eighteenth Century
For the biographies many new facts have been gleaned from parish registers, the records at Somer set House, and other original sources. The careers of the second and third Thomas Chippendale have been traced to their close; while the identity of the hitherto elusive Hepplewhite is for the first time satisfactorily established. In collecting the bio graphical material I have received valuable help from Mr. Gordon Goodwin.
