Excerpt from Old English Houses: The Record of a Random Itinerary The last twenty years or so has shown a universal advance in taste, especially regarding the appreciation and preservation of old buildings in which our country fortunately is still so rich. Compare for example the restoration of a church in the 'seventies or 'eighties, with the careful and judicious restoration of to-day; or the adaptation of modern requirements to an old house thirty or forty years ago. But the word "restoration," however modified, does not harmonise with ancient buildings, and though the busy wheels of progress travel rapidly, there are still out-of-the-way nooks and corners in old England where, like the slower movements of a clock, things proceed as tardily as they did a century or more ago.

Excerpt from The Stately Homes of England England in rich - immeasurably richer than any other county the sun - in its "Homes;" and these homes, whether of the sovereign or of the high nobility, of the country squire or the merchant-prince, of the artisan or the labourer, whether, in fact, they are palace or cottage, or of any intermediate grade, have a character possessed by none other. England, whose "Home! sweet home!" has become almost a national anthem - so closely is its sentiment entwined around the hearts of the people of every class - is, indeed, emphatically a Kingdom of Homes; and these, and their associations and surroundings, and the love which is felt for them, are its main source of true greatness. An Englishman feels, wherever he may be, that "Home is home, however lowly;" and that, despite the attractions of other countries and the glare and brilliancy of foreign courts and foreign phases of society, after all "There's no place like home" in his own old fatherland. Beautifully has the gifted poet, Mrs. Hemans, sung of English "Homes," and charmingly has she said - "The Stately Homes of England, How beautiful they stand Amidst their tall ancestral trees O'er all the pleasant land!"

Excerpt from Old English Interiors Noteworthy examples, such as Haddon and Hardwick Halls, Sutton Place, Longleat, Hatfield and Burghley Houses, Ightham Moat and Warwick Castle have been carefully preserved and maintained - as we hope they will be for a long time to come - by their owners and their sucessors, but, for one reason or another, many others have been removed or destroyed. When I became interested in decorative art many years ago, I was impressed by the almost criminal ignorance which resulted in the ruthless sacrifice of work of this description. The housebreaker, for instance, was gifted with so little knowledge, that much valuable material and many models worthy of being placed in our national museums were thrown away or broken up, things beyond price, in the sense that once lost they can never be replaced. Time was when they were so lightly regarded as to be offered me for a few shillings. We have changed all that now, but the models I secured then have now proved to be of inestimable value.

Excerpt from Old Manor Houses The proper anti logical way of composing a picture-book is for the author first to tell his story in the text, and for the artist afterwards to illustrate what the writer's brains and pen have developed and described. In this book I ant forced to put the cart before the horse. The pictures must tell the story, in the first place, and the text be but an accessory - a film reel with captions added by the producer! No deep antiquarian or architectural knowledge must therefore be expected, but just a few facts and impressions gathered during weeks, and sometimes months, spent in the atmosphere of these old houses, and in many cases jotted down as notes on the margin of sketches. I present, then, in text and picture, my sketchbook of old houses. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
