The haunted homes and family traditions of Great Britain

Ingram, John Henry, 1842-1916 · 1897 · London, Gibbings & co., ltd · 16 pictures

A late nineteenth-century London book on ghosts and family legends at British country houses, compiled by John Henry Ingram and published by Gibbings in 1897. The four pictures are engraved views of mansions, gardens and tree-lined approaches drawn in a sober topographical manner, and a designer might take their dense foliage, stately symmetry and soft grey tonal shading as models for architectural landscape work.
