Review: Informative but could have had more....

This was a pretty informative look at the architecture and purpose of rooms during the Regency period.  As a fan of the period I've always had a curiousity about the structure of homes and the purpose of the rooms and this book did a pretty decent job of explaining the rooms and how they fit into the Regency's woman life.  Now could this book have been a little bit more informative?  Yes.  I felt that a page or two is not suffice to really explain the purpose of the drawing room, for example, or the kitchen.  Granted the book was not advertised as a full novel but I felt the author could have included more input.  Nonetheless this was informative even for the most casual of Regency period readers who may have wanted to know about the makeup of a home in the typical upper class crust.
