Book excerpt: Excerpt from Seattle Home Builder and Home Keeper This modest volume is presented, with their compliments, jointly by the editors and the firms whose advertisements appear in it. It is a book of suggestions garnered from the experiences of many home-builders. Most people build a new home but once. In a sense therefore the building of a home is a lifetime event. Consequently much importance attaches to every detail. It is not enough to learn by one's own experience what to do and what to avoid. Such knowledge will come too late. For while many of the mistakes thus made might be corrected afterward, it is always costly to make altera tions. Then again. Some errors could not be rectified at any cost and these would be a constant source of regret.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Honest House: Presenting Examples of the Usual Problems Which Face the Home-Builder, Together With an Exposition of the Simple Architectural Principles Which Underlie Them It is difficult indeed for us to create a house which is expressive of the owner, and at the same time consistent in all of its parts, true to a chosen style or character, and containing throughout the elements of good design, for the Sim ple reason that we are still young as a people, our social traditions are not so well established as to indicate clearly what is to be our future, and in consequence, what will be the character of the homes which will result. In our larger houses we are very likely to draw our inspiration from widely separate and distant fields, and we bring into them the accumulated art of the centuries past, and of the whole world. So it is no wonder that in these hustling times, when our days are filled with a multitude of interests, that we sometimes feel that we are strangers in our own homes. Then too, a spirit of pride and emulation is often wrought into the building of our larger houses, and often this motive, working unconsciously in the minds of both the owner and the architect, acts as a Chinese Wall, separating us from our ideals and the things which we actually accomplish.

Download or read book Rules for Radicals written by Saul Alinsky and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2010-06-30 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “This country's leading hell-raiser" (The Nation) shares his impassioned counsel to young radicals on how to effect constructive social change and know “the difference between being a realistic radical and being a rhetorical one.” First published in 1971 and written in the midst of radical political developments whose direction Alinsky was one of the first to question, this volume exhibits his style at its best. Like Thomas Paine before him, Alinsky was able to combine, both in his person and his writing, the intensity of political engagement with an absolute insistence on rational political discourse and adherence to the American democratic tradition.
