Book Review: The Weidenfeld Country Miniature Series: BH

THE WEIDENFELD COUNTRY MINIATURE SERIES
THE WEIDENFELD COUNTRY MINIATURE SERIES is an exquisite collection of books, which highlights the finer aspects of England within particular time periods. The ten volumes range in scope from interesting information concerning English pubs to the magnificent architectural achievements of Victorian England.

These diminutive books offer a fascinating glimpse into Britain’s heritage. Each book has 52 pages, equipping the reader with titbits of tradition and fragments of folklore. The pictures vividly exhibit a variety of places from the castles and cathedrals of Medieval Britain to the rolling and spacious landscapes of Celtic Britain.

This series is great for collectors of English history, or for those of you whose photographic skills left you with pictures that are less than first-rate.
