This book looks at Edwardian, including the homes of the wealthy as well as those of the middle and lower classes. It should be of interest to those who live in an Edwardian house, and to many more who share the author's nostalgia for this period.
Yvonne Bell became interested in the Edwardian era when her family moved into a villa of that period. Furniture contemporary with the 1910 house was inexpensive at the time, and gradually her fascination spread to pictures, ornaments, music, books, magazines, cards, postcards and much more. Mrs Bell uses this material to give talks on such topics as the Edwardian Christmas, the Edwardian wedding, the Edwardian holiday and Harrods in Edwardian times.
