Arts and Crafts House

Tinniswood, an architectural historian who has worked for the National Trust, a British heritage organization, explains how the Arts and Crafts movement evolved and explores the design, decoration, furnishings, and gardens of both town and country homes. Chapters on William Morris and his followers, homes that architects built for themselves, the American Arts and Crafts Movement, country life, and the international style of the later movement, incorporate detailed descriptions of specific homes, illuminated by multiple color and b&w photographs on every page.
