The National Trust looks after one of the largest and most
significant holdings of fine-art and heritage objects in the world.
As well as internationally famous works of art, the collections
also contain many remarkable but far less familiar objects with
fascinating stories to tell. This celebration of curiosities and
inventions features forgotten gadgets, unusual works of art,
humorous gifts and peculiar personal treasures. From dodos and
dioramas to witch bottles and wooden pets, every object provides
unexpected insights into the lives of those who made, owned or used
it. Selected by National Trust curators, the featured objects are
accompanied by easy-to-read captions. The book concludes with a
list of National Trust places where these intriguing collections
can be found.
