From Library Journal:
The warmth, textures, and versatility of wood as a building and decorating medium are vividly evoked in this lavishly illustrated work designed primarily for browsing and visual pleasure. Divided into four sections?styles, interior details, living with wood, and decorating?the text is light on history and stylistic analysis but robust on decorative schemes, description, and practical tips. Miller, a prolific design author and cocreator of the "Miller's Price Guides" series, draws examples from northern Europe, the United States, and Australia. The book concludes with a directory of organizations, architects, builders, and suppliers as well as an illustrated glossary. A surefire winner for interior designers, decorators, restorers, architects, and artisans and a good choice for libraries serving them.?Russell T. Clement, Univ. of Tennessee Lib., Knoxville
