Over 500 illustrations trace domestic architecture from indigenous dwellings of Native American groups to contemporary homes of the 1990s. Each of the 12 chapters begins with a brief narrative that summarizes a type, period, or style of architecture. Multiple interior and exterior views of representative buildings (including outbuildings) are well labeled. Features such as stairs, doors, windows, framing and wall construction, and brickwork are clearly illustrated. |
