Description: "Here is a lush cornucopia of scenes from the good life -- simple and grand, indoors and out -- summer living from Maine to Florida and points in between. Back in the days when kerosene lamps were vacation-house necessities, summer places typically had split-bamboo shades that were lowered to screen the porch, some hammocks and rocking chairs for lazing around, painted iron beds and enameled wash-basins in the bedrooms -- nothing stylish, just useful equipment for summering." --
