Summary
"This book encourages readers to think creatively about buildings in terms of their function and how these functions have changed over time in American history. The work presents material culture as lived experience and is designed to expand the encounter with material culture to look beyond house styles to how various household spaces (kitchens, living rooms, bedrooms, etc.) have been seen and felt in American life. This volume is the third in a series, Vernacular Architecture Studies, focused on introductory texts on aspects of material culture, often aimed at non-specialists"-- Provided by publisher.
