Excellent superb photography a classic informative book, a must for those interested in interior design / architecture recommended highly

ROBERT ADAM

Robert Adam was one of the most influential architects and decorators of the 18th century. His work influenced Hepplewhite and Sheraton to just name a few. This book does a fine job of making the reader understand the influence and the range of Adams work. The text is highly informative and well researched and the images are crisp and vivid. This book is expensive, yes, but if you have any interest whatsoever in this subject I can't imagine you being disappointed. Great book to buy, if you have the means to buy it.
