- Summary
- "This delightful book is the first comprehensive architectural guide to Bath, England's finest Georgian city. Full of new discoveries and lively descriptions, the book follows in the tradition of the celebrated Pevsner series." "The great set-pieces of Bath - the famous Grand Pump Room, the Circus, the Royal Crescent - form a splendid sequence in a charming urban landscape developed by a long succession of gifted architects.
- The city's Roman roots are represented by its extraordinary baths, its medieval prosperity by the splendid Abbey. Exquisite crescents, terraces and villas grace the surrounding hills."--Jacket.
