Trade Review"A thorough review of the life and work of a preeminent interior designer." -- Library Journal
"There are some precious lessons here for designers. Hodgins’s work shown on these pages starts in 1979 and in the eighties – and those early rooms look fresh, alive, relevant and current even today. . . . A book for every library." -- The Style Saloniste
"Writer Stephen M. Salny, veteran of previous volumes on David Adler, Frances Elkins, and Michael Taylor, has put together a lovely and characteristic survey focused particularly around residences made for a small group of families who returned for the design of house after house. . . . Mr. Hodgins characterizes his own style as ‘understated, quietly elegant, and especially comfortable.’ Few who make their way through this book will disagree; many will be apt to add a superlative or two to that description." -- New England Home design blog
"[A] lovely survey of a legendary interior designer . . . The result is a fine and lavishly illustrated coverage recommended for arts and architecture collections alike!" -- Midwest Book Review
