The architecture of colonial America
Harold Donaldson Eberlein's 1915 survey of colonial building in America, issued by Little, Brown of Boston for architects, students, and the early preservation-minded public. Halftone photographs record farmhouses, churches, and town mansions in full elevation, with dormers, gambrel roofs, pediments, columned porches, and shuttered sash windows set among bare trees and lawns; useful for building silhouettes and period architectural detail.
