Description: New York: Architectural Book Publishing Company, Inc., 1965. Large Hardcover. Very Good / Very Good. "The three hundred photographs and drawings of the architecture and gardens of Portsmouth and its vicinity which compose this volume give a vivid picture of a prosperous American town in the Colonial and Early Federal Periods of our history. The very fact that it is the most complete record so far published of any locality throws a doubly intense light on the origins and methods of work by which our unique and beautiful early style was evolved. Here are presented the public buildings and churches but more particularly examples of types of houses from the first simple ones to the largest and most elaborately designed, houses of large places in the country, and town houses; houses of weather boarding, shingles and brick. The types of plan represent the main types of New England and here also are shown the various kinds of roofs, windows and doors and beautiful examples of interior and exterior detail."
