Abandoned Palaces: Great Houses, Mansions, Estates and Hotels Suspended in Time by Michael Kerrigan
2.0
I requested this book just to see if Portugal appeared. It does.
Despite being titled "Abandoned Palaces", this book has picture os any building that was supposed to look grandiose at the time of its construction.
One of the things that I liked the most is that this book has pictures of all around the world, not just of Europe.
This is not the easiest book to read digitally because the ADE freezes whenever the file has images so you need to zoom in to be able to read the description and then zoom out to be able to appreciate the photograph.
The pictures themselves did not impress me as I thought they would, instead of eerie, most just seemed dirty and old but I did learn about several interesting buildings
