Praise for A History of Architecture in 100 Buildings:
‘Stunning’ Irish Examiner
Praise for Dan Cruickshank:
‘Beneath the jocular surface lies an entirely serious expertise. The breadth of Cruickshank's knowledge and the very speed of his journey enables him to make striking connections between apparently unrelated cultures ... illuminating ... inspirational’ Guardian
‘A colossal melting pot of a book: ambitious, rigorously researched, vigorously narrated and marvellously illustrated. All of life is here, but not as we know it’ Sunday Times
‘Fascinating ... a lively and scholarly panorama’ Daily Mail
