title: Collector's Guide to Victoriana (WALLACE-HOMESTEAD COLLECTOR'S GUIDE SERIES)
author:  O. Henry Mace 
description: The term "Victoriana" means many things to many people, and has been used on occasion to denote objects that resemble anything made during the Victorian era. Here the author wisely limits his coverage to objects actually produced during the reign of Queen Victoria, from 1837 to 1901. Room by room, this entertaining guide takes the reader through a typical middle-class Victorian home, discussing activities that took place in each room and describing objects normally found there. Individual entries include, whenever possible, a description of the object's uses, variety, and value as a collectible; a photograph; a list of price ranges; and a selected reading list. While one might quibble over a few points (e.g., the author refers to crocheting as "a form of knitting"), this guide is both thorough and readable and the accompanying bibliography is up to date. Highly recommended where interest warrants. (Index not seen.)-- Janice Zlendich, California State Univ. Lib., Fullerton<BR>Copyright 1991 Reed Business Information, Inc.
