Multiple examples of each house style are provided—the book includes 350 houses from more than 40 states—so the reader can see the region-specific variations. This concise, informative, portable volume is an invaluable resource for house hunters, homeowners, and realtors; architects, builders, and students. Amazon Customer Average Rating:
