Summary: About time!
Review: I agree with the previous reader, this is it ... the definitive book on Charleston Farmhouse. Although I think this book is more than a glimpse of the house and garden for those unable to visit, it is a surperb reference for those of us that have visited and wish to recall the house, etc. The photography is stunning, the text is informative. A worthwhile addition to any Bloomsbury book collection.

Summary: Unique and superb
Review: I don't know what the previous reviewers were critiquing-- what follows is about S Sangl's brilliant and unique book. It is safe to say that in every respect -- text, photos, and production values --- this unique volume fulfills its mission to present the tradition of German(ic) interior design at the highest level. Although the photos are true 'eye candy', this book is intended as serious discourse and rises far above the typical coffee table ballast.
