"""The quality of the reprint is nearly perfect, with a good selection of papers for the three sequential parts of the book: the texts, the drawings, and the black-and-white photographs. Text and drawings are on matte heavyweight pages, while the photos are on glossy paper. The inks make everything read well; in particular, the drawing reproductions are exquisite."" - Archidose ""In an era dominated by traditionalism on one hand and the emergence of modernity on the other, Lutyens’ work serves as a compelling testament to the brilliance of harmonizing these contrasting approaches."" - ArchEyes ""This reissued volume on Lutyens’ country houses is a vital resource and spur to further research, writes Jeroen Geurst."" - Building Design ""The country houses in Volume 1 represent Lutyens’ best known and arguably most admired projects…Lutyens’ work contained hints of classicism from the off and he revisited his more playful, vernacular work in later years. Sometimes he even reversed the sequence."" - Building Design ""Now, through a collaboration between the ICAA and ACC Art Books, the Lutyens Memorial Volumes are newly available to an audience that’s eagerly awaited their return. With a trove of detailed drawings, photographs, and essays by Arthur Stanley George Butler and Lutyens biographer Christopher Hussey, the books—one chronicling Lutyen’s country houses; another gardens and renowned projects like the Viceroy’s Palace in New Delhi; and the third, released this spring, on his public buildings and designs for Liverpool Cathedral—are faithful recreations of their originals, offering a window into their namesake’s genius."" - Traditional Building Magazine “Before the first edition was released in 2023, ICAA and ACC Art Books embarked on years of meticulous effort. Country Life provided high-resolution scans of their original glass plate images and the ICAA and ACC combed through these to match them with the images in the Memorial Series.” - Traditional Building Magazine “Now, with the Lutyens Memorial Volumes available once again, Lutyens admirers and new students alike have direct access to understanding the nuances of his approach.” - Traditional Building Magazine"
