Description

“Bernard L. Herman has provided us with a model study in the interdisciplinary interpretation of a common landscape.”—Robert Blair St. George, Journal of American Folklore
“An impressive study that adds a very powerful dimension to our understanding of the built environment.”—Clifford E. Clark Jr., American Historical Review
“Quite a lot of reader expectations might be met by this book. Herman provides a focused community study in addition to an interpretation of vernacular architecture in the Mid-Atlantic region.”—John Michael Vlach, Journal of the Society of Architectural Historians
“Scholars might be impressed by Herman’s ability to marshal different kinds of evidence to buttress his contention that architecture reveals not just how people materially ordered their lives but helped ‘to create and care for order, to project images of self and community, and to regulate meaning in social discourse.'”—Choice
