Queen Anne or Victorian, these beautiful houses have become
nostalgic sites in our historical memory. Linda Smeins explores the
development of pattern-book houses, considered the new "modern
suburban home" of the late 19th century. Through a discussion of
pattern-book designs and plans and pattern-book-inspired houses,
Smeins traces the evolution of this architectural style and
explores the meanings embodied in the notion of home and community.
Building an American Identity is an excellent resource for
architectural historians, historic preservations, educators and
anyone interested in the social history behind the building of
America's Victorian homes.
