Ancient Domestic Architecture Of Edinburgh is a book written by Robert Chambers and first published in 1859. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the historical architecture of Edinburgh, Scotland, with a focus on the domestic buildings that were constructed during the medieval and early modern periods. Through detailed descriptions and illustrations, Chambers explores the architectural styles, building materials, and construction techniques used in Edinburgh's ancient homes. He also delves into the social and cultural context of the buildings, examining the lifestyles of the people who lived in them and the ways in which their homes reflected their status and wealth.The book covers a wide range of buildings, from grand townhouses and mansions to more modest cottages and tenements. Chambers also includes chapters on the city's public buildings, such as churches and civic structures, as well as its defensive fortifications.Ancient Domestic Architecture Of Edinburgh is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Scottish architecture, as well as for those studying the social and cultural history of Edinburgh and its inhabitants. The book is illustrated with numerous engravings and drawings, many of which were created by the author himself, and provides a fascinating glimpse into the city's rich architectural heritage.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
