The American Style
"The colonial revival remains the most American of all expressions and is ubiquitous in today's culture. This book expands considerably on the subject. In addition to sections on architecture and decorative arts, there is one on 'Ballyhoo' or materials such as publications, stage sets, exhbitions, costumes, and miscellany. This is a book central to any historian's attempt to understand American material culture . . . it opens many new possibilities for study and research." —Richard Guy Wilson,Winterthur Portfolio
