The pleasure haunts of London during four centuries
A 1925 London and Boston history of the city's amusements and theatres, written by E. Beresford Chancellor for general readers interested in social history. The four plates are rotated black-and-white engravings of Ranelagh, the Italian Opera House, Almack's Assembly Rooms and Vauxhall Gardens, showing crowded formal gatherings in architectural settings, useful to a designer seeking period crowd scenes, elegant costume and garden architecture.
