Originally published by a group of New York and New Jersey architects in the 1890's, this book includes more than 200 detailed illustrations of designs for country homes. These designs are every bit a part of the age in which they were produced. The Victorians loved architectural embellishments of every kind, and it is no small part of the charm of this book to study the profusion of gables, porches, dormers, portholes, porticoes, chimneys, pinnacles and more. If you enjoy the elaborate architecture of Nineteenth Century America, you will thoroughly appreciate this book.
