BUCKINGHAM PALACEOct 20, 2006
By Shannon Deason
A nice book on one of the most recognizable if not prettiest palace in the world. The text is highly informative and the images are well presented. Buckingham Palace's exterior style is not exactly aweinspiring, it looks like a government building, like the treasury or department of state, it's really the interiors that make this place special. It's a high Georgian tour de force, the interiors are quite simply spectacular; they are elegant and have elan. If you have any interest in the Windsor's or love Georgian style then i highly recommend this book, if you have never seen the interior of this building, you will be pleasantly surprised.

Buckingham Palace, a reviewOct 10, 2007
By Luis Pacheco
I found the book to be very informative, good selection of pictures. It was interesting to compare the different rooms as they were changed from Queen Victoria through Queen Elizabeth. It lacks pictures and descriptions of the rooms in the new wing of the palace, the one facing the Victoria Monument. I do recommend this book, though, I wish it had more pictures of other rooms.

 Buckingham Palace reviewDec 21, 2011
By jotitdown
This book contains a lot of information on the background and history of this palace. There are a lot of illustrations, but not near enough pictures of the rooms, the incredible art and furniture, etc. that fill this wonderful building. More information on the current uses for the rooms, and pictures of those rooms, would greatly improve this book.
