The Practical Book of Building "The House of Health"; A handbook for every homeowner or prospective homeowner. How to finance, what to build, how to equip, to make the least amount of capital buy the most
New York: Garden City Publishing, 1937. Second edition. Decorated Boards. Quarto, pp 128, indexed, illustrated with b/w drawings and photographs. Very Good; no dust jacket. Item #20303
Detailed practical information on finance, construction plans, heating and air conditioning, insulation, lighting, flooring, roofing, siding, kitchen design, and much more. The first 50 pages is a compilation of articles on relevant topics and authored by other architects; the rest of the book appears to be the author's contribution on remaining topics. Many beautiful photographs, both interior and exterior, illustrate construction techniques and design points to consider. Very interesting!
