I got this book from the library and loved it so much I wanted a copy of my own. If you love American architecture, this has just about every type of American style home scetched with precision, each architectural detail explained. Each home is identified by its style, and where exactly it is located, with interesting tidbits about the owners or location added. Being from NJ, it was interesting to see that there is one specific style seen only in Salem County, NJ, which is right around the corner from me. Stuff like that really brings it alive.
