Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Long description:
The text of this volume comprises the Chichele Lectures of 1986 on the architectural history of All Souls College. Beginning with a discussion of the college's foundation by Archbishop Chichele in 1438 and the construction of the original medieval buildings, Howard Colvin lays considerable stress on the model afforded by the earlier foundation of New College. He goes on to consider the college's neo-gothic expansion in the early eighteenth century, and the great building work of
Nicholas Hawksmoor. Finally, John Simmons discusses the changes that occurred in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, and looks in particular at the alterations to the chapel made by Gilbert Scott in the 1870s.
This first architectural history of one of Oxford's most famous colleges is lavishly illustrated throughout, and contains several appendices.
