The Barn

by Nancy L. Mohr Author

Classic Barns of North America -From the first European settlements in the New World to the modern-day farm, the barn continues to be a symbol of country life in North America. The classic red barn of Vermont topped with a rooster weather vane; the hewn-log enclosure of Appalachia, whose planks are weathered by generations of rain, wind, and sun; the silo-sided storage barn of the Midwest, whose all-weather siding glistens in the sun -all these are images you will find in this book. With more than 90 photographs and detailed descriptions of barns from across the United States and Canada, this book is a definitive look at a lasting testament to American individualism, community spirit, and hard work.
