Description: Portland House(Non-Fiction, Architecture) Houses of New England by Peter T. MallaryPhotographs by Graydon Wood Shop Villagelder's Books-N-Games From the dust jacketWith 213 illustrations including 63 in full color When the first new England colonists arrived their immediate concern was survival. They quickly availed themselves of the area's greatest resource- tall standing timber - and built simple wooden frame houses, such as the Fairbanks House in Dedham, Massachusetts, Then they turned to more permanent structures, adapting and interpreting European styles in a way that is unique to New England. From the straightforward practicality of the dwellings of the early settlers to the elegance of the John Brown House in Providence, Rhode Island and the aristocratic charm of Boston's townhouses, the houses of New England reveal a remarkable diversity. This richly illustrated volume provides a personal tour of twenty-four of these historic homes and gives a fresh and lively account of New England traditions and history.
