The third volume, Just received, Is
given over to late Tudor and early

from 1853 to ie4s. Il follows the system
which Mr.. Tipping established from the

surveys the broader architectural traits
Of the period. This is followed by
chapters given 20 individual houses,
each one shrewdly chosen to bring out
Characteristic points. The professional

are intended even more for the general

But to consider the exhibition AZ a

to the more modern movement as re-
