THE HERITAGE OF UPPER CANADIAN FURNITURE- A Study in the Survival of Formal and Vernacular ... moreStyles from Britain. America and Europe, 1780-1900. By Howard Pain, Van Nostrand Reinhold Ltd. NY, 1978. THE HERITAGE OF UPPER CANADIAN FURNITURE is a book of firsts. It is meant for both the serious collector and those who are only beginning to become interested.
