Excerpt from Quarterly Papers on Architecture, 1845, Vol. 4
The work, now making four volumes, will, as a continuous publication, cease to exist, all the Papers being perfected; and is hence to be considered as complete. With much that is new, instructive, and useful in practice, it combines numerous embellishments worthy of the admirable art on which it treats.
