Focusing on late nineteenth-century England, the book investigates the interplay between domestic architecture, health reform, and feminism. Annmarie Adams delves into the evolving views of the English middle-class home from 1870 to 1900, revealing how architectural design reflected shifting attitudes towards health, women's roles, home life, and political contexts. Through this lens, the work highlights the significant impact of societal changes on architectural practices and the domestic sphere.
