520 1 $a"This work of reference on the history of British architecture contains biographical information on some 2,000 architects who practised in England, Scotland and Wales from the time of Inigo Jones (1573-1652) to that of William Burn (1789-1870) and Sir Charles Barry (1795-1860). This new edition is the fourth of what began in 1954 as A Biographical Dictionary of British Architects 1600-1840, and 62 newly identified architects and about 700 buildings have been added since the previous edition." "The dictionary lists every building of importance whose architect can be identified, together with such details as dates of erection and demolition, style, and references to illustrations and published descriptions. Besides a concise biography of each architect, the book provides, whenever possible, a brief assessment of the quality of the architect's work. All architectural books published by British architects of the period 1600-1840 are listed under their authors, and there are full indices of persons and buildings. The dictionary is prefaced by an introductory essay on the history of architectural practice in Britain between 1600 and 1840." "The book is an essential tool for architectural historians, conservationists and local historians in England, Scotland and Wales."--BOOK JACKET.
