This reference volume offers a representative sample of the current British magazine market, providing detailed profiles of fifty magazines, written mainly by scholars from England, Scotland, Wales, and Ireland, and supplementary data on many others. The separately profiled magazines range from the venerable The Scots Magazine (1739), Spectator (1828), Punch (1841), and The Illustrated London News (1842) to relative newcomers of the 1980s such as Country Living (1985), Prima (1986), Q (1986), and House Beautiful (1989). Included are major circulation leaders like Radio Times, Smash Hits, and Womans Own, prestigious and influential journals like The Economist and New Scientist, regional magazines like Cumbria and The Dalesman, general interest magazines, and a wide variety of magazines in targeted subject or readership categories, like cars, homes, nature, and sports.

The Arts & Crafts Country House (Hardcover) $94.17 A detailed survey of 25 major houses from the Arts and Crafts movement reveals the enduring legacy of an architectural idealDrawing upon the unique Country Life archive, this is a fascinating, detailed survey of 25 major country houses designed by the Arts and Crafts movement`s foremost architects, including Lutyens, Webb, Williams-Ellis, and Blow. Growing out of a reaction against the Industrial Revolution in the late 1850s, and inspired by an alternative vision of life based on the revival of traditional building crafts and the use of local materials, the Arts and Crafts movement produced some of Britain`s greatest works of design, architecture, and decorative art. Country Life magazine, founded in 1897, championed the movement in the weekly articles it devoted to country houses, illustrated with specially commissioned photographs. This beautifully illustrated collection reveals the enduring legacy of an architectural ideal while also demonstrating how the Arts and Crafts tradition continues to influence architects today. |
