Wow, was I surprised when I finally read this book. I had looked at all the pretty pictures, (one on nearly every page) but with all the books I read, this one took a back seat for awhile. I must say that in reading the book, what I liked best, is that they kept it down to just five major houses. Ms. Brierton not gives a good description for each house, she also included how it was acquired, what was done to it and what is yet to be done to it. The people who restore these homes are just like you and me. They are all trying to save money and still have the finest restored "Victorian" home around. It was very helpful knowing that the homes didn't necessary start out nice, but were apartments houses or sometimes just very run down. This give me HOPE in restoring my home. I like how she presents the homes as a restored yet live-able addition to the neighborhood. Her reviewing different eras of homes helped also. Mine is a very late Victorian . I would like to see a bit more information on the "how to's" but she really has done a fine job. I heartily recommend the book to anyone restoring an old "Victorian" home.
