No Voice from the Hall: Early Memories of a Country House Snooper

No Voice from the Hall: Early Memories of a Country House Snooper by Harris, John. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780719555671.

"It was John Harris mournful voice that tolled out the catalogue of demolition in The Destruction of the Country House exhibition at the Victoria & Albert Museum, that devastating show that effectively launched Britains Heritage movement in 1974. His morbid fascination with [Britains] empty, derelict, and dying country houses in the late 1940s and 1950s is the principal theme of this intensely romantic, poignant, angry, frequently hilarious, and hauntingly illustrated memoir."
