This history of furniture shows the reader how domestic furniture has developed over a period of 4000 years. It covers furniture styles from the oldest surviving pieces found in Tutankhamen's tomb, through to what the author considers to be the highest point of achievement in the history of furniture making - that of 18th century France - to the Art nouveau and American Shaker styles of the late 19th century. The guide covers European, Asian, North and South American, African and Australian furniture.
