Excerpt from Small Country Houses of to-Day, Vol. 2

My present subjects are grouped with reference to the traditions which inspired them. The simpler vernacular work comes first, and the changefulness of modern eclecticism is seen through various types and roughly in the historical sequence of their anti-types until the presentation of the later classical tradition is reached. It is the manner of some books on domestic architecture to discuss qualities of design and to illustrate them by buildings which yield apt examples of the writer's theses. I have taken a house rather than an abstract quality as the basis of each chapter, and let its main characteristic suggest a line of thought. The method is discursive, even disjointed, but at least it has the advantage that the reader may skip a chapter without breaking the thread of any argument.
