Here is one such, dated June, 1849, which will be accept able to all possessors of the original edition Of the 'seven Lamps of Architecture.' I have seen, with much pleasure, the favourable notice Of the Lamps in the London journals for considering the way in which the book clashes with many wide interests and received Opinions, I had not hoped for so kind a reception Of it, but as none of the reviewers appear to have understood the purpose and value of the illustrations, I think it right that you at least should have it in your power to give some answer to any verbal Objections that may be made to their apparent rudeness.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
