In the Country Style: Timeless Designs for Today's Home

I took a chance and ordered a used copy of this book, and I am delighted with it. It has color photos on just about every page. The book is more photos than text; all the photos are color. Intro is 9 pages. There are four 90-page chapters entitled: French Country, Italian Country, English Country, American Country. At the back are sources 3 pages, and an index 5 pages. Some photos are of exteriors and/or gardens, but most are interiors of rooms. I am fond of chintz fabrics, wallpapers, English style, traditional style, gardening style, romantic style, country style-----and as I had hoped, quite a few of the photos in this book are pleasing to me.

The larger portion of this book has spectactular pictures of interiors of French, Italian and English source; with traditional historic flare. A good source for historic repoduction interior decorating; colors, Patterns and textures in blues, greens, yellows, reds. Lovely Textiles in solids, prints, English floral chintzes and provence patterns. Many accent details for living areas, dining areas, bedrooms, etc. Fabulous architectural photos; inside and outside. A exceptional source for reproduction historic kitchen and bathroom ideas. I just love this book. I can't put it down.
