From 55 BC to 1945, An Utterly Impartial History of Britain informs, explains, but most of all laughs at the seemingly incomprehensible rollercoaster of events that make up the story of Great Britain. Packed with great characters trapped in impossible dilemmas, this true-life drama will have you on the edge of your seats thinking "I wonder which of them dies at the end?" (Well, they all do, obviously. It was ages ago.) As entertaining as a witch burning and a lot more laughs. "Mum, Dad, the Second Crusade is starting! Can we put a St George`s flag on the cart?" "No dear, we don`t want everyone to think Daddy is a builder."

Its many incarnations include beach shacks, mountain-top chalets, country estates, ranches and hobby farms, lakeside villas and isolated cabins. The unique styles reflect their owners` very personal approaches to what it means to be `on vacation`. The architecture of holiday homes reveals the shift in lifestyle that defines a vacation; architects are required to work closely with their clients to achieve just the right spirit. The results of this collaboration can be breathtaking.
