Download or read book The Country House Revealed written by Dan Cruickshank and published by Random House. This book was released on 2012-07-31 with total page 521 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spanning the architectural history of the country house from the disarming Elizabethan charm of South Wraxall, the classical rigour of Kinross in Scotland, the majesty and ingenuity of Hawksmoor's Easton Neston, the Palladian sweep of Wentworth Woodhouse, with over 300 rooms and frontage of 600 feet, the imperial exuberance of Clandeboye, through to the ebullient vitality of Lutyens' Marshcourt, the stories of these houses tell the story of our nation. All are the are buildings of the greatest architectural interest, each with a fascinating human story to tell, and all remain private homes that are closed to the public. But their owners have opened their doors and allowed Dan Cruickshank to roam the corridors and rummage in the cellars as he teases out the story of each house - who built them, the generations who lived in them, and the families who lost them. Along the way he has uncovered tales of excess and profligacy, tragedy, comedy, power and ambition. And as these intriguing narratives take shape, Dan shows how the story of each house is inseparable from the social and economic history of Britain. Each one is built as a wave of economic development crests, or crumbles. Each one's architecture and design is thus expressive of the aims, strengths and frailties of those who built them. Together they plot the psychological, economic and social route map of our country's ruling class in a rich new telling of our island story.

Book excerpt: When faerie tale dreams come true, nightmare creatures can be deadly. Eve doesn’t believe in magic or fate. But when her carefully ordered life begins to unravel, she starts dreaming about the Faerie Queen depicted in a tapestry that hangs at her uncle’s family estate in England. The dreams rekindle her passion for history and give her a new plan for her future. Step one in that plan is a Christmas visit with her aunt and uncle at Lydbury Manor that she hopes will earn her an internship with her uncle. Unfortunately, a mysterious handsome stranger is also living at the manor and says he’s her uncle’s secretary. Liam has been cooped up in Lydbury Manor masquerading as a human for far too long, at least as far as the Fae High Court is concerned. He knows he’s close to locating the magical artifacts that will help the Fae destroy the leader of the Wild Hunt. He just needs a little more time. What he doesn’t need is Oscar’s niece showing up, asking questions he isn’t allowed to answer. If he allows her to distract him, the Hunt will ride again at the winter solstice, laying waste to the remaining Fae. As Eve’s suspicions about Liam bring her closer to discovering his secrets, the pair are forced to decide between fighting their mutual attraction, or surrendering to a forbidden love that will threaten both their lives.
