Review: Great little book; clear, easy to understand and good illustrations
Review: I have The 1930s House Explained, so I knew what to expect from this book. It's got line drawings and photos as well as clear text explaining the features of the house, and it's written clearly so even non-architects get a lot from it. My only negative is that this book seems to concentrate mainly on the grandest Edwardian houses, whereas I really wanted to know about small houses and what you can learn about the lives of "ordinary" people from them. I'd have thought more people are likely to live in an Edwardian terrace than a Lutyens Arts and Crafts house, but they didn't get much of a mention (The 1930s House Explained did explain the features of smaller homes, as well as elaborate and iconic mansions). If you have or know a grand Edwardian house, you'll learn a lot about it from this book, but otherwise it's not as detailed as I'd hoped.

*by A***R on 5 August 2020*

The book is an excellent overview written by an enthusiast for this sort of property. It is partly history setting the subject in context and partly practical guide about the specifics of architectural styles and structures. The supporting illustrations are clear and complement the text. The text is mainly in plain English and there is a glossary to explain the subject specific terminology used. The technical terms are worth knowing if one needs to communicate clearly with surveyors, architects, builders or the various trades when contemplating a purchase, maintenance, restoration or conversion of Edwardian properties. An initial read through takes only a couple of hours but I will be making plenty of use of it as a reference in the future. There is plenty of attractive Edwardian housing stock still extant and this book makes the appeal of a period homes clear. Edwardian houses have been around for more than a century and are just coming into their prime. I greatly enjoyed this book and will keep it handy for years to come. It is a very useful addition to the available literature as indicated by the scarcity of the original printed copies. The Kindle edition is most welcome.
