Subtitled "Practical Designs of Low and Medium Priced Houses", this reprint of a rare 1873 publication includes detailed drawings of "cottages" that dwarf most modern homes. Printed at the height of the Victorian "Gingerbread Era" which was a consequence of the flowering of America's Wooden Age, the structures illustrated in this volume all are loaded with architectural excess and ornamentation. Contemporary advertisements reprinted with the book help to further capture the spirit of the times. If you love big, old houses, you will love this Nineteenth Century classic.
