Описание: For every great country house of the Georgian period, there was usually also a town house. Chatsworth, for example, the home of the Devonshires, has officially been recognised as one of the country’s favourite national treasures - but most of its visitors know little of Devonshire House, which the family once owned in the capital. In part, this is because town houses were often leased, rather than being passed down through generations as country estates were. But, most crucially, many London town houses, including Devonshire House, no longer exist, having been demolished in the early twentieth century.
This book seeks to place centre-stage the hugely important yet hitherto overlooked town houses of the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, exploring the prime position they once occupied in the lives of families and the nation as a whole. It explores the owners, how they furnished and used these properties, and how their houses were judged by the various types of visitor who gained access.

The stepped terraced house is a type of building that meets modern housing requirements: it is economical and offers ample living space with the comfort of terrace and garden. Rising to popularity with the advent of new social movements it was forgotten with the progressive erosion of the new ideas of society and relegated them to obscurity or even to their disqualification as eyesores. Yet the enduring satisfaction of residents and ecological advantages of green houses make terraced housing as attractive as ever.
The buildings studied in the book are not only architectural icons today; even today, one can still learn from them about what residential buildings need. One proponent of this building style was Harry Gluck; part of his text pleading the case for a green city is printed here.

LaMonte McLemore, founder of vocal group legends The 5th Dimension, has been described as the music industry's "bronze Clark Gable." The 6-time Grammy award-winning visionary not only delivered "The 5th's" elegantly hip Champagne Soul as the quintet's smooth bass for over 40 years, but is also known for his 5 decades with JET magazine, as the photographer for the enticing "Beauty of the Week" feature.
LaMonte shares the secrets behind mega-hits like "Up-Up and Away," "Stoned Soul Picnic" and "Aquarius/Let The Sunshine In," anthems for a generation which uplifted our country during tumultuous times. He also goes deep for the fans and provides exclusive commentary on The 5th Dimension discography, spotlighting such favorites as "Wedding Bell Blues," "One Less Bell to Answer," "A Love Like Ours," "Love Hangover," "Black Patch," plus albums like the iconic "Magic Garden," the seminal "Portrait," and the mysterious "Earthbound."
The journey to becoming one of the most popular singing groups of The Rock n' Roll era--one that crossed over racial, generational and record chart boundaries--came by way of "Hobo Flats," where "Mac" and friends hung their resourceful hats and dreamed big. His Cherokee Grandma's feisty wisdom was a guiding force that weaves throughout the book, the catalyst for LaMonte's various trailblazing exploits. Mr. McLemore, who played baseball in the Dodgers Farm system, hits a home run presenting a memoir peppered with tasty anecdotes about countless celebrity colleagues from Frank Sinatra to Diana Ross, Ray Charles to Pharrell Williams. There's even a secret recipe Mac's love of women is also explored, with sensitivity and a classy wink.
The memoir's 12 chapters unfold authentically "in LaMonte's voice;" nobody presents a story like the rib-tickling raconteur. Running the gamut from heartwarming slang to sophisticated savvy, the book's style easily reflects the celebrity's earliest humble roots yet wondrous trajectory to stardom on the world stage.
"From Hobo Flats to The 5th Dimension" is a literary work as told to Robert-Allan Arno, a New York-based media personality who is a trusted expert in "all things 5th Dimension." The book contains an exhilarating 50-photo centerfold of rare and/or never-before-seen pictures from Mr. McLemore's personal collection, as well as a detailed album and singles Discography appendix of The 5th Dimension.
An inspiring, historic tale of unbridled humor and touching pathos, in "From Hobo Flats to The 5th Dimension," LaMonte doesn't quit until he makes you laugh...and think.
Marilyn McCoo & Billy Davis, Jr.: "LaMonte's special brand of humor is truly on display in 'From Hobo Flats...' He has a way with storytelling, and we've particularly enjoyed re-living our successes as seen through his eyes. But he also lets the reader in on his deeper thoughts. His co-author, Robert-Allan Arno, was the right person for this book. He knows LaMonte well. We found it to be a totally entertaining and informative read."
Mary Wilson formerly of The Supremes: "I loved your book...lots of laughs "
Johnny Mathis: "When a tall, handsome young man came to my house many years ago to photograph me for Elegant magazine, I had no idea that his other job as a singer would propel him and his fellow members of The 5th Dimension to world fame. I am so proud of LaMonte."
Nancy Sinatra: "The 5th Dimension had it all--great voices, engaging personalities, and oh-so-easy on the eyes."
Harry Elston of The Friends of Distinction: "I learned some things about LaMonte that I didn't know, yet being a resident of Hobo Flats for many years, I can remember a lot of these adventures. I was also laughing my a**s off Well-written by Robert-Allan Arno, 'Mac' pulls no punches...you won't be able to put this book down "
J.D. Nicholas of The Commodores: "Wow, I found myself constantly researching most every song that was detailed in the book, recorded by The 5th Dimension."
