London: Vintage, 2002. Soft cover. 8vo. Fine. Item #012161

Soft cover. 276 pp. Numerous photographs. Slight tilt to spine, light edge toning, else fine. Growing up in California, Dennis Severs fell in love with the England he saw in old black and white movies. At seventeen he came to London, looking for a home with a heart. In 1979 he found one -- a run-down silk-weaver's house in Spitalfields -- and over the next twenty years he transformed it into an enchanted time capsule, transporting us back to the eighteenth century.
