Historic homes of New England
A 1914 survey of colonial and Federal houses in New England, written and photographed by Mary Harrod Northend and published by Little, Brown of Boston for readers interested in early American architecture and antiques. The halftone plates show interiors in soft grey tones: carved mantels and panelled overmantels, turned-baluster staircases, parlours with Windsor and ladder-back chairs, gilt mirrors, patterned carpets and small-paned windows, useful for period room references and architectural detail.
