Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Homes in City and Country The picture on p. 4 gives the exterior of such a house, taken from one of those now standing on the north Side of Washington Square. The only discrepancy between plan and exterior View is that the latter has a more elaborate entrance; the doorway proper more deeply recessed and decorated with wooden col umns within the recess, while a marble porch decorates the opening in the house-wall. In Baltimore and the more Southern cities a Very different plan of house, and one more nearly approaching the suburban type, was usual. Plan 2 shows the ground-floor of such a house of the smaller and cheaper sort, and it will be seen that such a plan presupposes lower prices for land and the possibility of using, for an eight-thousand or a ten-thousand dollar house, a larger, or at least a wider, lot than New York allowed to a house of twice the cost.

This book was released on 2015-07-03 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from City Homes on Country Lanes, Philosophy and Practice of the Home-in-a-Garden I am an optimist. I believe the world is going to be a better world for our common humanity in the next decade - the next generation - the next century - than ever before in the long history of the race. And I believe the next passion of mankind will be for the soil - that there we shall "take Occasion by the hand and make the bounds of freedom wider yet." But, if there is to be a transition in the life of the land - if new forms of industry and society are to emerge - then this will be due to the fact that the old life on the land has failed, is breaking down, and is doomed to pass away. That is what I believe to be true. In saying so, I sound no note of pessimism, but rather the note of hope, of confidence, of boundless faith in what the future is to bring forth. I know the land is to be the healing and the saving of the people - of our people and of all the peoples. There is no other refuge. But before we can build the new life we must clearly understand that the old life has failed, and why it has failed. Then we must proceed to discover the principles upon which the new and better life is to be founded. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
