In a rich blend of architectural and social history, Cummings reconstructs some of our nation's first houses. This is a splendid story of innovations, of restless, migratory people and their architectural and social responses to their environment. It is the first chapter in the long saga of America's preoccupation with technology, showing how it affected the early American home.
Winner of the Alice Davis Hitchcock Book Award of the Society of Architectural Historians, and the Laurence L. Winship Book Award of the Boston Globe.
