Book Synopsis An Illustrated Glossary of Early Southern Architecture and Landscape by : Carl Lounsbury
Book excerpt: Covering the full range of building in the early South from 1607 to the 1820s, this handsome, informative reference identifies and defines the language of building during a formative period of architectural development. The 1,500 architectural and landscape terms, ranging from building types to methods of construction, delineate both regional and traditional terminology as well as classical influences introduced by English architectural books and professionally trained craftsmen. Abundantly illustrated with some 300 bandw photographs and drawings. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
