by Eleanor Lee Reading Templeman, Nan Netherton
Category: Historic buildings

The first compilation of historic sites and homes in the area totalled six hundred and fifty, which were reduced to approximately four hundred and fifty. The format of the book necessitated the omission of many interesting homes. The selection shows a cross-section of various types symbolizing different aspects of pioneer, Colonial and Early Federal Life; from cabins to mansions, constructed of log, clapboard, brick and stone. Included are pictures of several old homes which are now gone, victims of the elements or the bull-dozers. -- Preface.
