Majorca is, quite simply, a paradisical island. This book reveals the secret, hidden side of the island, where private houses quietly exist behind thick dry-stone walls and olive trees, protected from the curious gazes of tourists. The island is the sortof place dreams are made of. Only a few have turned such a dream into reality and `Country Houses of Majorca` is your chance to discover the stunning evidence in pictures. The 220 photographs highlight the island's most impressive and beautiful fincas, including many houses published here for the first time.
