Publisher's Synopsis

Excerpt from Staircases and Garden Steps

IN this, the third of the house decor ation series, the same evolutionary plan as adopted in the preceding volumes has been adhered to. An endeavour has been made to show how the staircase developed in importance with the advance of art, suffered an eclipse when architecture was at a low ebb, and now gives evidence of receiving renewed attention.

While adopting the historical form, the aim in writing the book has been to point out that which is good in past work and present tendencies, and that which is bad.
