I'm looking for a non-fiction or historical fiction is fine too… About historical architecture and property. Something like this is X house, here is X picture, here is X history and history of the owners or architect.
For non-fiction, I just picked up “Chateaux of the Loire Valley” by Robert Polidori and Jean-Marie Perouse de Montclos. It’s got loads of gorgeous pictures of castles and chateaux from one of the loveliest areas of France. There’s a lot of historical details too, like a picture of the current day Mehun-Sur-Yevre next to how it was depicted in the Tres Riches Heures illumination.
