Victorian Glory
in San Francisco and the Bay Area |
| by Paul Duchscherer and Douglas Keister |
| Few cities can claim the instantaneous association
with Victorian style that is enjoyed by San Francisco. Beyond the
polychrome Victorian houses, there is a cumulative visual impact of
all types of architecture, both exterior and interior. This beautiful
book contains 260 color photos and includes sections devoted to Victorian
House planning, the Edwardian Era, before and after transformations
and Victorian Revival Interiors. |

REVIEWS |
|
"That this is a coffee table book is evident by the wealth
of high quality photographs and a structure that welcomes the casual
reader...that this is a serious work as well is discerned by a
more thorough reading of the finely detailed accompanying text..."
|
— Lynette Evans
Home and Garden Editor
San Francisco Chronicle 7 Nov, 2001 |
| "Victorian Glory
is one of the finest attempts to capture the essence of a regional
period architecture which this reviewer has seen...balances the context
and detail of the architectural history of San Francisco and the
Bay Area with the comprehensive and striking images of a great many
structures. Highly recommended." |
