Other Reviews:

"This book satisfies a need of which I have long been aware, providing us at last with vital information about the inhabitants of our beloved dolls' houses. Its author is an expert in her field, with a long-tine love both of dolls' houses and their inhabitants. This book has been meticulously researched and put together with the utmost care. It will, without a doubt, become the standard work on this subject."
