Item Number: 114003 Title: Strawberry Hill & HORACE WALPOLE Author: Iddon, John Price: Not Available ISBN: 9781857596571 Description: London: Scala, 2012. 21cm., pbk., 46pp. with numerous color photos. Publisher's summary : During the latter part of the eighteenth century, Horace Walpole, son of England's first prime minister, transformed a modest house into his own 'little Gothic castle,' creating a tourist attraction, which was as popular in his day as it is in ours. Walpole was a compulsive collector and filled the house with an impressive collection of antiques and curios. The house and gardens have recently undergone a multimillion-pound restoration project to return Walpole's Gothic vision to its original splendor.
