1 comments about The English Urban Renaissance: Culture and Society in the Provincial Town 1660-1770 (Oxford Studies in Social History).
- This book does much to dispel the myth that London was the font of all culture in England during the eighteenth century; likewise, it challenges the long-accepted notion that the gentry in the provinces desired little but to emulate London fashion in all things, be it personal fashion, garden design or architecture. Peter Borsay's writing style is smooth and erudite, his grasp on the many interweaving threads of eighteenth century life is firm and confident; the tapestry he creates in this book is as colourful and rich as it is flawless. As a seasoned historian in this area I suggest that no serious library of works dealing with eighteenth-century English culture is complete without this wonderful work.

1 comments about Historic American Towns along the Atlantic Coast (Creating the North American Landscape).
- This book contains short sketches of nine towns situated along the Atlantic Coast (Castine & Kennebunkport, ME; Edgartown, MA; Stonington, CT; Ocean Grove, NJ; New Castle, DE; Edenton, NC; Beaufort, SC; and St. Augustine, FL). The sketches mainly show how each town developed over the years, many in a roller-coaster fashion. Most of the towns reached their peak period in the 19th century before falling on hard times - only to be revived by either tourism or carefully controlled development. The book is heavily illustrated with maps and photos, which is a big plus. Unfortunately, the writing is wooden and overly academic which makes reading the text not much fun. Good as far as it goes, but not a memorable work.
