Editorial Reviews:

A reference guide to barns and other rural structures, this book explains the difference between Dutch and Swedish barns, for example, and those designed for animals or crops. It details their peculiar construction methods and architectural styles, as well as pinpointing their geographic location.


Customer Reviews:

4 out of 5 stars If I had only known.....

This field guide has what I consider to be soso black and white photos and drawings of each type of barn and supporting structures. If you are looking for accurate information on a style of barn and where it may be located this is the book for you. I would perfer better quality photo's and some color. Rather boring presentation!

5 out of 5 stars Fantastic Book on Barns!

For what I wanted the book for it is a fantastic resourse. I build model barns and covered bridges. This book has not only given me new ideas but also a history behind them. Love the book.

1 out of 5 stars Frustratingly brief presentation

While the book presents numerous types of agricultural buildings from all over the U.S., it doesn't go into any sort of detail about any of them, making it of limited reference use.
