Description: "Raffaella Sarti takes up in Europe at Home, a fascinating guide to European homes, families, and material possessions of the sixteenth through nineteenth centuries. The book traverses all of Europe and presents a detailed picture of daily reality for people at every economic level, from the ragged masses of the homeless to the privileged nobles who occupied grand villas and palaces.
