In his introduction architectural historian Morgan notes how confusing it is to sort out American styles of architecture; they are eclectic and have proliferated, borrowing from one another and from the past. This reference for homeowners and others contains 15 style-oriented chapters presenting a total of 23 styles (to incorporate regional variations), represented by some 400 houses from 40 states. Each section comprises color photos (and some drawings) accompanied by brief introductory text and a chart identifying distinguishing characteristics. The book begins with "colonial" and ends with "deconstructivism" and "curiosities." Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
