This groundbreaking architectural history examines what people actually wanted in their institutional and private patronage over the last two centuries as opposed to what architects and theorists thought they should want - as seen through the prism of Oxford's principal building contractor and craft practitioner, Symm & Company.
Beautifully written and lavishly illustrated, The Comfort of the Past also considers the influence of Oxford on country houses in the area and on architecture in America." * RIAS Quarterly *
