Nails, noggins and newels
Starting at the front door, this book takes a look at our homes through different eyes, revealing the history of every part from the bricks and beams to pelmets, lights and water pipes; from wallpaper, windows and paints to floors, fires and fitted kitchens. Crammed with fascinating facts about the everyday bric-a-brac of the house in which you live, Nails, Noggins and Newels is written in a lively, informal style which will appeal to any DIY enthusiast.

BILL LAWS has written seven books on garden history; his last title, Artist's Gardens (Ward Lock 1999) has sold 20,000 copies in the UK. He writes for The Telegraph, Sainsbury's Magazines, Period House and Its Garden. Formerly a professional gardener, he manages an organic garden on the Welsh borders.
