Summary
Each chapter treats one of the major architectural fashions, or styles, that have been popular over our country's past. The chapters are arranged roughly chronologically, with the earliest styles first.The opening page of each chapter features a large drawing showing the three or four most important identifying features which differentiate that style from others. The most common shapes, or principal subtypes, of each style are also pictured on the opening page, along with references to pages of photographs in the chapter that allow the reader to see quickly the common features in a range of examples from each particular style and subtype. Most chapters also includes drawings that show typical smaller details-for example, windows, doors, and roof- wall junctions-that cannot easily be seen in full- house photographs. Text supplementing the drawings and photographs discusses the identifying features, principal subtypes, variants and details, and occurrence of each style. Concluding comments provide a brief introduction to the origin and history of the style. [from the publisher]
