Small tear in bottom right corner. Pages: 246 Dimensions: cm +++ by Michael Keath (Signed by the Author) +++ While resident in South Africa, Herbert Baker produced his finest work. Here Michael Keath explores the breadth and range of the 'Baker style', with its unique blend of English Arts and Crafts, Cape Dutch vernacular and Italian classicism so well suited to South African conditions, and highlights the simple quality of many lesser-known buildings. Architecture and Idealism by Michael Keath is based extensively on original sources and contains much previously unpublished material about the man who designed the Union Buildings A passion for books and a passion for collecting fine editions was the recipe that created the successful group of bookshops in Johannesburg called Bookdealers. The group started thirty years ago with one store in the quirky suburb of Yeoville and has grown through the years to a total of five shops, plus our online sales. Bookdealers is well-known for its collectable and used books. We also have a large variety of remaindered books sourced from around the world. If you collect from one of our five branches there is no delivery charge. We also offer postal delivery (when available) and courier delivery, subject to a quote.
