Description and Table of Contents
Description
This year, and for probably only a limited number of years, the Palace will open again for two months in the summer, and the public will have a chance to see behind the famous gates. This is the official guide book to the Palace, containing an informative text on the long history of the house before it became the palace of Queen Victoria, its transformation since then and on the running of the Palace today. The book describes the rooms open to the public, outlines their history and their use, and reveals the wonderful paintings, furniture and porcelain within the rooms, previously unseen by most. The book contains a complete list of all the treasures contained in these rooms which the throne room, the state dining room, the blue drawing room, and the picture gallery as well as many others.
