Hardcover. Condizione: Used - Very Good. 'In speaking with many women across the country, ' explains best-selling author Chris Casson Madden in the introduction to her new book, A Room of Her Own: Women's Personal Spaces, 'I have discovered that as much as we revel in the hard-won victories that have given us new freedoms in pur…suing careers and in creating loving relationships, many of us long to find the time in a busy schedule to relax and refresh ourselves, body and spirit. I firmly believe that in order to give back to our relationships, careers, families, and passions, we must pull in for short moments to take care of ourselves, then we can return to the people and places of our lives renewed, refreshed, and ready to continue the drama of our days with all the joys, sorrows, pleasures, and stresses that go with it.' Throughout America Chris has found women from all walks of life who have created for themselves a diversity of personal spaces that provide them the quiet and solitude needed to restore their souls each day. These range from Ali MacGraw's studio in northern New Mexico, its incredible mountain views provide the silence and tranquillity she needs, to designer Sherri Donghia's fabric-filled loft in her Long Island country home, where she can stop, think, relax, and be really honest and creative, to television commentator Chantal Westerman's home, where, amid a collection of altars, crosses, and other religious icons, she has created a peaceful and serene sanctuary. With over 200 beautiful, full-color photographs and an intimate, engaging text, A Room of Her Own: Women's Personal Spaces brings to life the special places that women have created as retreats from their busy everyday routines. Within theseven chapters, Celebrating Color, Sacred Places, Working Sanctuaries, Natural Retreats, Serene Spaces, Evoking Memories, and Garden Rooms, innovative and stylish ideas for creating a room of one's own abound. Ella King Torrey, President of the San Francisco Art Institute, explains in Celebrating Color why she gravitates toward her sitting room in her home in San Francisco. 'I just relax and think in this room, ' Ella explains. 'This room really feeds my soul and reminds me of life's wonderful possibilities. Every object in this room is connected to a personal place or experience, and so sitting in this room keeps me whole.' Carol Anthony, Chantal Westerman, Sally Quinn, Sister Mary Joaquin, and Ali MacGraw all share a passion for the spirit within, for altars, rituals, and the silent, reverent spaces that are profiled in Sacred Places. Artist Carol Anthony has a 'sanctuario, ' or shrine. It is a thatched-dome adobe structure surrounded by sage brush and aspen trees where she retreats to rekindle the strength she derives from her beloved New Mexico landscape and finds the muse that is necessary for her career as a highly acclaimed artist. Ali MacGraw shares a need for a space filled with personal belongings with all of the women featured in A Room of Her Own. 'There are lots of photographs of my son, my friends, our animals, mementos from my travels, wildflowers, found rocks and bits from my walks in the arroyo. I think that all of us, men and women, need a tiny spot of total privacy, of stillness, to reconnect with our own souls. I know that the ability to regenerate, to get away a bit, enhances not only my mental health but my ability to work and create and,probably, to navigate the complicated relationships that make up the rest of my life.' An avid spokesperson for the outdoor life and one of the country's most notable mountain climbers, Sandy Hill finds that a rainbow-colored Tibetan tent pitched on the lawn of her Connecticut home fulfills her need for a private space. The tent, featured in Working Sanctuaries, was purchased en route to Mount Everest. It is filled with a myriad of pieces that she values emotionally and spiritually. 'Everything in this space is necessary to my well-being, ' she explains. Designer Victoria MacKenzie-Childs, who, along wi.

Hardback. Condizione: New. The House of Lords presented the stage on which some of the critical confrontations in English and British constitutional and political history were played out in the late seventeenth and early eighteenth century. Published for the History of Parliament Trust.Condemned as 'useless and dangerous', the H…ouse of Lords was abolished in the revolution of 1649, shortly after the execution of King Charles I. Reinstated, along with the monarchy, at the Restoration of 1660, the House of Lords vigorously renewed its involvement in the political life of the nation. This highly illustrated book presents the first results from the research undertaken by the History of Parliament Trust on the peers and bishops between the Restoration and the accession of George I. It shows them as politicians at Westminster; as members of an elite intensely conscious of their honour and status; as a class apart, always devising new schemes - successful and unsuccessful - to increase their wealth and 'interest'; and as local grandees, to whom local society looked for leadership and protection. From the proud duke of Somerset to the beggarly Lord Mohun, from the devious earl of Oxford to the disgruntled Lord Lucas, the material here presents initial insights into the nature of the Restoration House of Lords and the men who formed it, showing them in their best moments, when they vigorously defended the law and the constitution, and in their worst, as they obsessively concerned themselves with honour and precedence and indefatigably pursued private interests. RUTH PALEY is editor, and BEVERLY ADAMS, ROBIN EAGLES and CHARLES LITTLETON are senior research fellows, for the House of Lords, 1660-1832 section of The History of Parliament. PAUL SEAWARD is director of The History of Parliament.

As new condition photographic boards contained in an as new condition non price-clipped color photographic dust jacket. Includes Author Dedication; Acknowledgments; Introduction; and Index. Profusely illustrated with over 200 color photographs and colo…r illustrated front and rear endpapers. Signed by the author, Chris Casson Madden, with thick black Sharpie/marker in big bold script letters on the first free front endpaper. ".In my periods of retreat, perhaps I can learn something to carry back into my worldly life, as a beginning. - Anne Morrow Lindbergh. "Every woman needs a bit of personal space for her own peace of mind. With more than 200 full-color photographs and a wealth of intimate details, A Room of Her Own, by Chris Casson Madden, explores thirty-eight delightful rooms created by women for nurturing their body, mind, and spirit." - from the rear outer jacket. "What is it that women want? Today, the answer is "A quiet place for myself." Busier than ever before, women long for their own personal spaces in which to relax and regroup, indulging their thoughts, talents, and daydreams. In A Room of Her Own, Chris Casson Madden offers a beautiful collection of these spaces, defined and designed for a woman's peace of mind. Here, women from all walks of life introduce us to the sanctuaries they have created in their own homes. Some of these women, like Oprah Winfrey, Maya Angelou, and Ali MacGraw, are well-known; others are known only in their own communities. But they all lead full, busy lives. And whether it's a quiet sewing room, the corner of a busy kitchen, a potting shed, a sunny porch, or even a tent in the garden, their personal spaces are richly revealing. Each chapter also contains design ideas, creative solutions, and intimate details that readers can integrate into their own lives. The welcome message of A Room of Her Own is that any woman's life can - and should! - include a personal space for herself, for nurturing her body, mind, and spirit." - from the inner front jacket flap. Levy, Jennifer (photography); Davey, Dania Martinez (book design) (illustratore). Signed by Author(s).
