Book is in pristine condition. A seminal, comprehensive history of log construction in the United States. The author challenges the myth that English settlers brought the log cabin to America, establishing instead that Scandinavian (Swedish and Finnish) settlers introduced it in the Delaware Valley in the 17th century. The book covers the technical evolution of building, covering German and Scots-Irish influences, and tracing the structure's spread from the East Coast to the frontier. It includes detailed sections on construction styles, tool usage, and the use of logs for buildings other than homes. Target Audience: While essential for researchers, it includes very detailed, granular information that makes it "of interest primarily to local historians and log cabin enthusiasts". Legacy: The book remains a foundational text on the topic, often cited in later works on architectural history and regional studies. ; ; 382 pages; Signed by Author.
