Description: "This book traces the lineage of New Zealand houses from the 1800s to 1940. It examines the versions or reinterpretations of other countries' housebuilding practices and fashions which have been adopted here and stamped with our own national characteristics. The preferences of our forebears reflect their image of "home" - and can be seen to lean more towards the New World than the Old Country"--Cover.
