Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Early Connecticut Houses This book is based upon the examination and measurement of a considerable number of the older houses of Connecticut. We have not attempted to record every example. From the wealth of old work now standing in the State circumstances of time and expense, as well as the limits of our book, have caused us to select typical dwellings and to leave unmeasured much that is of great interest and value. Our aim has been not to make a mere list of old houses with a description of each one, but rather to trace the development of planning and the survivals and the changes of building methods in the architectural history of the colony. We can only hope that our work may be the means of enlivening and assisting the already awakened interest in these monuments of our colonial history, so that we may have uniform and accurate records of all of them, for we are sadly aware that many must have escaped our notice. We owe many thanks for assistance cheerfully and generously given, in all the towns where we have carried on our investigations. Especially are our thanks due to the owners and the occupants of the old houses, who have constantly put their dwellings at our disposal, often at some inconvenience, no doubt, to themselves, and have allowed us to measure and sketch at our leisure. The architectural illustrations will explain themselves. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
