    Content: MACHINE-GENERATED SUMMARY NOTE: "In the arrangement of this work, it will be found that the subject has been divided into four periods. The first, dating from 1500 to 1660, comprising furniture that can be attributed to the Renaissance and its evolution from the Gothic, may be termed 'The Age of Oak.' The second, from 1660 to 1720, where the change is varied by the Restoration and Dutch influence, followed by a distinctly assertive English spirit, may be called 'The Age of Walnut.' The third period, where the introduction from France of fresh ideas in design clearly marked another change, lasting from 1720 to 1770, which we call 'The Age of Mahogany' ; and the fourth, from 1770 to 1820, inspired by an affectation for all things classical, combined with a curiously unbalanced taste, can best be described as 'The Composite Age.' It is proposed to deal with the history, development, and evolution of English furniture only, but as the sources of its inspiration can so frequently be traced to foreign origin, it will be necessary to introduce occasionally some of these examples, in order to more clearly explain the different types and their close analogy. The comparison will be useful also for defining where the English craftsman at certain periods departed from his foreign model and struck into an original path. "
