Paradise Valley, Nevada: The People and Buildings of an American Place
( Stonemasons from the Alpine valleys of northwestern Ita...)
Stonemasons from the Alpine valleys of northwestern Italy shaped the architectural face of Paradise Valley in northern Nevada in the 1860s and 1870s. Drawing on their own distinctive skills, they constructed the constellation of granite and sandstone buildings that are the region's most visible landmarks. Marshall's analysis of this architectural legacy, illustrated with 229 photographs and 70 line drawings, is not only a valuable resource for scholars in vernacular architecture, folklore, and cultural geography, but also a verbal and visual treat for all who love the American West.

Vernacular Architecture in Rural and Small Town Missouri: An Introduction
("Vernacular architecture is a continuous visible message ...)
"Vernacular architecture is a continuous visible message to our culture. It communicates who we are as people. It reveals our struggles, delights and values. And, it explicates our human connection with place. As a result, the sensitivity to vernacular architecture intrigues people of all ages, the entrepreneur as well as the private homeowner, the community advocate as well as the casual reader. The concern for the condition and history of our built environment is compelling Dr. Marshall's timely commentary will be useful to: *chambers of commerce *community betterment groups *educators *elected officials *environmental designers *historical societies at all levels *planning councils *preservationists *tourism and economic development groups *rural enthusiasts ---- from the Introduction by Ruth Brent and Wander Eubank of the Department of Environmental Design at the University of Missouri-Columbia
