Download or read book Legendary Homes of Lake Minnetonka written by Bette Jones Hammel and published by Minnesota Historical Society. This book was released on 2010 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hundreds of cottages and cabins, mansions and houses line the shores of Lake Minnetonka, one of Minnesota's most beautiful lakes and site of the state's most coveted properties. Legendary Homes of Lake Minnetonka invites readers into thirty of these dwellings-built by families like the Washburns, Pillsburys, and Daytons. Evocative words and stunning color photographs guide readers through these beautifully designed and furnished homes. Portrayed in elegant detail are interiors of renovated Victorian cottages and rustic cabins, as well as those of houses designed by modernist masters like William Lescaze and Philip Johnson. Photographer Karen Melvin takes viewers through the front door, showing living rooms furnished with Mies van der Rohe couches and chairs designed by Frank Lloyd Wright and walls adorned with works by Robert Motherwell and Damien Hirst. Author Bette Jones Hammel relates the homes' histories of ownership and details the many renovations they have seen over time, renovations that have attempted to retain the homes' character and extend their lifespan. For the best views of the exteriors of these homes, you would need a boat. To see the interiors, you would need an invitation. Hammel and Melvin have chosen the most interesting houses-both architecturally and historically-and painstakingly scouted out the best vantage points, both inside and out, to provide a personal tour of these spectacular homes.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cabins, Cottages and Summer Homes A few there are who, blessed with an abundance Of the world's goods, can dwell in country estates and retain a town house for their city sojourns. Others less fortunate who must labor there, and Of necessity find themselves anchored down within the city's bustling radius, move farther and farther out as their prosperity increases, into the uncrowded suburbs, where the air now and then has a faint tinge of the Open spaces, and where there is hope now and then Of a little contact with the good earth, even if it be artificially landscaped and greened. All this is still a far cry from the lush ness Of the timber lands and the virgin quality Of the. Far wild places. All this helps to make City dwelling bearable, but it does not satisfy that wildwood longing. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
