Farm: The Vernacular Tradition of Working Buildings

ANNOTATION

Every building and structure on a farm tells a story. Traveling through time and seasons, countries and regions, this book documents various cultural traditions, styles, and influences reflected in the overall layout of the farm complex (in relation to the landscape) and in the individual structures and building materials. Over 200 color photos.

FROM THE PUBLISHER

Combined with a stunning array of interior and exterior photographs are stories from generations of families. This illustrated documentary shows farm buildings being saved and restored, giving them an extended life and respect for our past and their future. Farm presents a world rich in historical anecdotal detail, yet appealing to contemporary sensibilities.
