Summary: a delightful book for the fan of English style
Review: What a tragedy that Roger Banks-Pye died before he could see this book published. It's an absolute delight filled with wonderful photos and insights that personify the style of Colefax and Fowler -- elegant yet comfortable town/country style. His charm, imagination, and love of color and taking a dare show in every page
