Excerpt from Colonial Architecture of the Eastern Shore of Maryland
Numerous volumes have been published. Illustrating the larger and more important works of the Colonial Period, but with the simpler structures, so logical and full of refine ment, we are not so familiar; and yet these simpler buildings are perhaps the best evidence we have of how innate and unaffected was the art of proper building among the early colonists.
