This anthology of 28 articles from the first ten years of Fine Homebuilding magazine is mainly devoted to the building or remodeling of houses closely or loosely related to the crafts style (wide eaves; low-pitched, gabled roof; exposed rafters; heavy use of wood and stone; and fine details) of the early 1900s. The thrust of the articles is to discuss the solution of some unique site, construction, and/or code problem. Among the other subjects are designs from Gustav Stickley, Charles Green's James House, and Bernard Maybeck's Wallen II house--all noted for their craftsman-style work. Readers planning a house will find some bits of help, but almost no cost data. Of interest to architects, builders, designers, and arts and crafts aficionados.
