Thanks for joining me for Mailbox Monday! MM was created by Marcia at A girl and her books (fka The Printed Page), who graciously hosted it for a long, long time, before turning it into a touring meme (details here)
Diary of an Eccentric is hosting in March. Please stop by her terrific blog to see what this "eccentric bookworm" is reading lately.
Thanks to a recent visit to Booktique, a wonderful Friends of the library bookstore in Lake Oswego, a stack of "County House" books came into my city house last week:
The English Country House: An Art and a Way of Life by Olive Cook
Life in the English Country House: A Social and Architectural History by Mr. Mark Girouard
A Country House Companion by Mark Girouard
Althorp: The Story of an English House by Charles Spencer
The English Country Town by Anthony Quiney and Robin Morrison
Now all I need is a huge pot of tea and a fire in the fireplace.
