Architect Robert Kerr (1823–1904) gives a detailed account of the building of 'stately homes' in this work, published in 1864. He explains the history of the 'gentleman's house' and discusses the building options down to the smallest pantry, making this work a comprehensive guide to mid-Victorian aspirational home building.
