Key masterpieces have been included from every period: the imposing medieval fortification of Dunsany Castle; the first piece of domestic architecture at Carrick-on-Suir: a wealth of grand country houses built in the elegant Palladian style, such as Castletown, Russborough, and Powerscourt; and inventive Gothic Revival houses built in the fashionable crenellated style, such as the magnificent Glin and Tullynally castles ; While these buildings have been chosen for their outstanding architectural interest, others, like Abbey Leix, have been selected for their sumptuous interiors. ; price-clipped dustjacket ; FINE/FINE.
