This detailed architectural analysis illustrates and describes the stately connected farm buildings made by 19th century New Englanders, which stand today as a living expression of a rural culture. Filled with vintage photos, illustrations and diagrams, this book examines in detail the complete building history of several farmers and shows how their buildings achieved their connected form during the 19th century. Informative chapters cover: the buildings and the land, patterns in building, reasons for connected buildings, and more. Also included is a detailed bibliography, glossary and index. This book has become one of the standard works on regional farmsteads in America, and will be a welcome read for anyone who gets a hold of it.
