Reviews

“This engaging and beautifully written book achieves the impressive task of combining local and national perspectives, art history and social history, issues of class and questions of taste. The reader will enjoy stories about the varied lives and collections of five fascinating members of the middle class in Victorian Brighton.” -- Janet Wolff, Manchester University, UK
