North Carolina architecture
"This illustrated history displays the wide range of North Carolina's architectural heritage, from colonial times to the beginning of World War II. North Carolina Architecture addresses the state's grand public and private buildings that have become familiar landmarks, but it also focuses on the quieter beauty of more common structures." "Now in a convenient new format, this portable edition of North Carolina Architecture retains all of the text of the original edition as well as hundreds of photographs and other illustrations. Catherine Bishir's narrative analyzes construction and design techniques and locates the structures in their cultural, political, and historical contexts."--Jacket
