KENSINGTON: PICTURESQUE AND HISTORICAL. By W. J. LOFTIE, B.A., F.S.A.,
Author of "A History of London," &c., &c. Illustrated by W. LUKER, JUN.,
from Original Drawings carefully finished on the spot and engraved in
Paris. LONDON: Field & Tuer, The Leadenhall Press, E.C. L2 5s.

Since the publication of Faulkner's work in 1820, no history of
Kensington pretending to accuracy or completeness has been produced.
This sumptuous work contains full and descriptive accounts of the parish
of Kensington and the adjoining Palace and Gardens, with the changes and
improvements of the past half century or more; notices of Kensington
celebrities and of the great national institutions which have sprung up
at Kensington Gore and Brompton Park; and a fund of discursive matter of
local and historical interest. In regard to the very numerous and
absolutely faithful illustrations, two years have been spent by the
artist in making for this work original drawings of old and modern
Kensington. They include artistic exteriors and interiors; glimpses of
Kensington Gardens; the Palace in which the Queen was born; the park;
the people, streets, houses, churches, and ruins; and pretty, quaint,
and taking "bits" of Kensington scenery. All the drawings have been
engraved in Paris in the finest possible manner, and the paper on which
they are printed has been specially manufactured of a quality to ensure
the delicacy of the originals being fully retained.

For the curious a few PROOF copies of KENSINGTON: PICTURESQUE AND
HISTORICAL at five guineas, bound in full morocco, have painted in
water-colours on the front, under the gilt edges of the leaves, a couple
of Kensington views, which, until the leaves are bent back at an angle,
are invisible.
