A sad farewell to what use to make up so much of what America held dear,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Barns Around Iowa: A Sampling of Iowa's Round Barns (Paperback)
In an agricultural society, the barn is a fundamental structure that was adapted to a diversity of tastes, materials, architectural experiments, and distinctive styles. History in the form of farm buildings, "Barns Around Iowa: A Sampling of Iowa's Round Barns" is a superbly produced collection of photographs about Iowa's round barns, which had once numbered well over two hundred thousand. One thousand of these barns vanish annually and only a fraction of that original two hundred thousand number remains. A piece of heritage and personal history, "Barns Around Iowa" is a sad farewell to what use to make up so much of what America held dear - its agricultural history and architecture.
