Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a wonderful resource that analyzes the history of the Pilgrim settlers through an understanding of the architectural heritage that binds them to England and Holland, where the exiles sought refuge before they came to the New World. By weaving in the architectural history, the author literally shows us how New England was built. Most of us enjoy visiting old houses and historical sites, and it is in this area that the author's knowledge is most valuable. Analyzing gables, windows, roof shapes and so on, the writer connects the owners and the builders to their places of origin, making graphic comparisons between places in both Old and New England. It appears that the southeastern counties of England, and Essex in particular, were the main source not only of early New England architecture, but of the whole religious movement which led to the original Mayflower expedition and to subsequent migration on a larger scale. Names familiar in New England, as the sites of some of the best surviving seventeenth-century houses (such as Dedham, Wethersfield, and Topsfield), have their counterparts in obscure Essex villages. And, all these villages, as well as more familiar names such as Colchester, Chelmsford, Braintree, and Billericay-found in New England as in Old-were "hot beds of Dissent" in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. You will enjoy the excellent drawings and very interesting photographs in this book! The names of influential settlers, or those whose homes still stand, can be found in the original full-name and subject index. An extensive bibliography is also included.

Book excerpt: Exploring America's material culture, Common Places reveals the history, culture, and social and class relationships that are the backdrop of the everyday structures and environments of ordinary people. Examining America's houses and cityscapes, its rural outbuildings and landscapes from perspectives including cultural geography, decorative arts, architectural history, and folklore, these articles reflect the variety and vibrancy of the growing field of vernacular architecture. In essays that focus on buildings and spaces unique to the U.S. landscape, Clay Lancaster, Edward T. Price, John Michael Vlach, and Warren E. Roberts reconstruct the social and cultural contexts of the modern bungalow, the small-town courthouse square, the shotgun house of the South, and the log buildings of the Midwest. Surveying the buildings of America's settlement, scholars including Henry Glassie, Norman Morrison Isham, Edward A. Chappell, and Theodore H. M. Prudon trace European ethnic influences in the folk structures of Delaware and the houses of Rhode Island, in Virginia's Renish homes, and in the Dutch barn widely repeated in rural America. Ethnic, regional, and class differences have flavored the nation's vernacular architecture. Fraser D. Neiman reveals overt changes in houses and outbuildings indicative of the growing social separation and increasingly rigid relations between seventeenth-century Virginia planters and their servants. Fred B. Kniffen and Fred W. Peterson show how, following the westward expansion of the nineteenth century, the structures of the eastern elite were repeated and often rejected by frontier builders. Moving into the twentieth century, James Borchert tracks the transformation of the alley from an urban home for Washington's blacks in the first half of the century to its new status in the gentrified neighborhoods of the last decade, while Barbara Rubin's discussion of the evolution of the commercial strip counterpoints the goals of city planners and more spontaneous forms of urban expression. The illustrations that accompany each article present the artifacts of America's material past. Photographs of individual buildings, historic maps of the nation's agricultural expanse, and descriptions of the household furnishings of the Victorian middle class, the urban immigrant population, and the rural farmer's homestead complete the volume, rooting vernacular architecture to the American people, their lives, and their everyday creations.
