Full description for Vernacular Architecture

• Based on thirty-five years of fieldwork, Glassie's "Vernacular Architecture" synthesises a career of concern with traditional building. He articulates the key principles of architectural analysis, and then, centring his argument in the United States, but drawing comparative examples from many locations in Europe and Asia, he shows how architecture can be a prime resource for the one who would write a democratic and comprehensive history.
