Title: Early Homes of Massachusetts: Architectural Treasures of Early America.
Description: Arno Press. VG. Some of the early craftsmen who became carpenter-builders in New England brought with them traditional methods of. construction and for a period they followed the ways with which they were familiar. But the new country's rigorous climate, rapid temperature changes and frequent searching storms as well as completely new materials soon caused them to adapt their work to new conditions with results utterly distinct from any work of the mother-country. Many architectural details in diagrams.
