Recenzii
"A blend of pragmatism and nostalgia for an idealized landscape."—Financial Times
"The three quite distinct parts of the revealed book show Pevsner as guide, historian, and critic ... the cinematic passage of the first part's pictures are a treat in themselves."—The Architect's Journal
"The excellent introduction by John Macarthur and Mathew Aitchison . . . contextualizes the manuscript with as much erudition as insight."—The Architectural Review
"Seeing the world through [Pevsner's] eyes is rewarding."—Building Design
"The third [part of the book] collects Pevsner's attempts to apply picturesque principles to modernist architecture, and the first is a brilliant, hauntingly illustrated photo-essay on a select series of streets, squares, and quadrangles in Oxford and London."—Icon Magazine
"A detailed and dense reminder of Pevsner's genius, wrapped up with some beautiful images of bygone Britain."—Monocle Magazine
“Well worth reading.”—The Times Literary Supplement
“A fascinating collection of thoughts by one of the twentieth century’s heroes of architectural thinking.”—Urban Design
"A blend of pragmatism and nostalgia for an idealized landscape."
