Description
"The silhouette of a barn's familiar shape as you roll through the American countryside is an iconic sight, harboring stories and history from its floors to its rafters. Barn reveals the compelling history of these structures from colonial times, examining how immigrants adapted traditional designs from their home countries to the American landscape. Inside, Barn guides the reader on a tour through many types of barns, showing how construction materials, cultural influences, function, and style have given rise to their extraordinary variety. The reader will also learn about barn preservation, barns in pop culture and mythology, elements of barn style, and barn construction."--Back of cover.
