| Publisher Description: "Byways" is a vintage study of a variety of old towns located in different countries. For each town treated it provides a detailed description, as well as interesting historical and architectural information, and more. This volume will appeal to those with an interest in architecture, and especially the history and development of European architecture. Contents include: "Avignon", "Orange, Saint-R my, Les Baux", "The Pont du Gard, Vaison, Arles, Pont S. Esprit", "Aix en Provence, The Roc Sainte Victore, Vauvenargues", "Nimes", "Le Mus e D sert", "Le Mus e D sert (continued)", "Munich (1928)", "The Monasteries, Passau, Linz, S. Florian, Krems-M nster, Melk", etc. Sir Reginald Theodore Blomfield RA (1856 - 1942) was a notable British architect, garden designer and author during Victorian and Edwardian period. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this book today in an affordable, modern edition complete with a specially-commissioned new introduction on architecture. |
