Description:	Select Guide Rating Both a sweeping history and an intimate account of making a home, told through the prism of an English country house. ''Charming - a love-letter to home, history, and nature.'' LEAH BROAD, Author of Quartet ''A tender and illuminating history of an overlooked world.'' HORATIO CLARE ''Truly a revelation on every page.'' PETROC TRELAWNY ''A richly textured book, replete with illuminating discoveries and observations.'' COUNTRY LIFE ''A wide-ranging meditation on place and past.'' LITERARY REVIEW Gavin considered himself an urban being... until he met his husband, Alastair. Together, they bought Stepps House in Pembridge, Herefordshire - on love at first sight. But then came the question: ''How old is it?'' With its ancient beams, the date they''d been given seemed out by centuries. As Gavin traced Stepps House through various hands and eras, he saw a past emerge that resonates powerfully with our present. Mixing history and art, memoir and landscape, A Home for All Seasons is grand in its sweep and intimate in its account of rural life.
