Summary: Terrific book

Summary: What a beautiful book!
Review: The intriguing shape of the book worried me a bit, so often the content doesn't measure up to a cover -- but I was in love from page one... I have many books on dollhouses and miniatures, but this is the one I have on display, and it has inspired me to finally get on with putting all those miniatures I have been collecting into order and getting those dollhouse plans finished. BRAVO! A must have for the dollhouse collector!

Summary: Fantastic Book
Review: This book is utterly charming! From its delighted by-fold doors that grace its cover to the close up view of dollhouses throughout the ages, it holds the reader captivated. Women will return to their childhood days, becoming little girls again as they roam the pages rejoicing in the doll's lavish surroundings. Admirers of the world of minitures will be enthralled with the exquisite pieces displayed. All will learn much about the homes themselves, their makers, their furnishings, and their owners. The quality of the volume is without question, with glossy pages, sturdy binding, durable covers and clear text. I thoroughly recommend it to all.

Summary: This book begs to be opened!
Review: This was a very cool book! The first thing you notice when you pick up this book is that the cover is shaped just like a house, and the book's opening is right down the middle. It feels like you are opening up the doors to a real dollhouse. Inside, there are full color illustrations of dolls, dollhouses, and furniture on nearly every page. The details are phenomenal! If you are a collector or builder of dollhouses,this is your book! I really enjoyed looking at the pictures and reading about the privately owned dollhouses and collections that are featured in this book. Some of the more unique houses shown in the book are the Kupjack rooms, the Palace of Versailles, and the Shoe House. Those of you who attend miniature shows or are a member of NAME will recognize the names Brooke Tucker, Ned Kellogg, and Marcia Backstrom as miniaturists featured between these pages. This book is a wonderful addition to the collection of minature hobbyists everywhere.
