Reviews

Reason enough for even the seasoned professional to reach for the Pevsner before tackling the internet. -Leigh Alston, Landscape History -- Leigh Alston * Landscape History * `... the most ambitious recent Pevsner revision, with so many new entries it has been divided into east and west, each well over 600 pages. The illustrations, almost all taken by Paul Highnam, are a consistent triumph, capturing every building in a revealing light'-Marcus Binney, the Times. -- Marcus Binney * The Times * `James Bettley is proving to be one of Pevsner's most respectful successors...'-Gillian Darley, the Guardian. -- Gillian Darley * The Guardian *
