Postscript summary

Originally published in four volumes between 1845 and 1852, this work describes a selection ('as should combine the spirit of the whole') of Scotland's historic architecture, each building illustrated with engravings by the architect Robert William Billings (1813–1874). Known simply as 'Billings', this influential book, with its focus on distinctive Scottish style, is credited with having inspired the 'Scotch Baronial revival'. The introduction is by Ian Gow, Chief Curator of the National Trust for Scotland. Limited edition of 600. Slipcased.
