5.0 out of 5 stars Thorough and comprehensive, May 17, 2000

Edward J. Shannon, AIA (Elgin, IL United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Bungalow: The Production of a Global Culture (Paperback)
This is a ver thorough and comprehensive work. It traces the evolution of the bungalow back to the 1600's in India and shows how the bungalow evolved into the twetieth century house style that Americans have come to know and love. While the text is exhaustive, the photos are old reprints and in a few cases are hazy. The book adresses the evolution of this building type not so much from an architectural stancem but more from a sociological view point. This is a scholarly work that is intened for the serious student of vernacular architecture. It is not a 'stlye book' nor is it a source for decorating.
