If they are framed, they are likely to have brick lined walls or several layers of planks for strength and insulation. The beams in all the houses are hand hewn and very large. A major purpose of the publishers of this work is the stimulation of pride of ownership to the and that disfigurement and deterioration of our old houses may be checked."

The subject of framing has been entirely omitted, partly because it has been amply treated elsewhere, partly because it will does not lend itself readily to the method of treatment here chosen. The drawings have been carefully prepared after a long, practical experience and with the aid of one of the best libraries in this country, supplemented by a large collection of working drawings from the offices of leading architects. The few pages of advertising have been added to the work not so much for the sake of the revenue derived therefrom as with the hope that they may contribute to the actual value of the subject matter by calling attention to special devices or details that could not well be included within the body of the book."

Blue gilt stamped cloth over boards, top edges gilt, deckle edges, xxix + 395 pp., one hundred and fifty-four drawings by Joseph Pennell also with plans and diagrams. From the Introduction: "My book is meant for the untraveled unprofessional American who wants to understand in a general way why the great churches of the Old Country deserve to be admired, and for his traveled brother who wants to realize a little better why he himself admired them. It is not a history of English architecture, and it is not a full and faithful picture of the churches it professes to describe. It is simply a sketch of English cathedral-building, based upon such evidence as twelve typical examples could supply. But I have tried to make it an architectural rather than pictorial sketch." Book is cocked, corners and spine ends bumped, covers soiled and scuffed, front hinge is a little weak; interior is clean, no writing or marks, binding sound. Illustrator: Pennell, Joseph.
