After enjoying this sensory experience, you will understand some of the idiosyncrasies of the British better. And you have never seen the landscape parks as romantically enchanted as this.
Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung
It was the British. They invented tourism. This also left its mark on their own country early on, as an impressive illustrated book with hundreds of photochroms from the years around 1900 shows... What Sebastian Dobson and Sabine Arqué have compiled for the extensive volume is a broad panorama. Photochrom printing is a process that was the gold standard.
Süddeutsche Zeitung
Magnificent color photographs... A wonderfully enlightening book.
