A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Designs, etc., we found it necessary to adopt a system for conducting this class of business, and with which to supply a want long felt, especially in the country, where Architects had done but little business, and the people had been obliged to plan their own houses or copy from their neighbors. This led us to issue the first edition (5,000) of Model Homes. These have nearly all been disposed of, having been sent into every State and Territory in the Union, and many to the provinces. In the first book the designs were very poorly given, on account of their being wood-cuts. Even poor as they were, it was very highly valued by the general public, and this fact has induced us to issue a second edition, which has been entirely revised, and will be found a much more complete guide to the erection of buildings. All the designs in this A vork have been made by us in the past few months, and with one or two exceptions are now in progress of erection. They will be found full of suggestions for parties who intend building, as they contain the ideas and requirements of a number of different individuals, localities and site for which intended, and show what progress has been made in the last few years in American A rchitecture. THE AUTHORS. Bridgeport, Conn., Jxily 1st, 1878.
