Opis: The Half-Timber House - Jackson Allen W.

The Half-Timber House Its Origin, Design, Modern Plan, and Construction; Illustrated With Photographs of Old Examples and American Adaptations of the Style is written for the general reader by Allen W. Jackson. The preface declares that Jackson's intention for this book is not to provide a "technical treatise" or a serious contribution to the history of architecture. This book has been written, instead, for the primary purpose of bringing the concept of house building to average individuals who are considering building for themselves.

This book presents a very practical guide to house building and construction concepts that the author breaks down into easily digestible parts. Jackson has already printed several articles on this topic, and this book brings all of the author's previously written articles on this subject and compiles them into one concise manuscript with key chapters molded in direct response to previously published articles by Jackson. The author has also crafted several illustrations of his own work to represent the ideas and concepts within the book more clearly to the reader.

The Half-Timber House Its Origin, Design, Modern Plan, and Construction; Illustrated With Photographs of Old Examples and American Adaptations of the Style is an exciting read for any individual who wants to learn how to build a practical house with their own two hands. This book is a wonderful resource for individuals with no previous building experience, and for readers who are well versed in construction. This book makes for a very informative read for people wanting to learn building basics, those that want to know how to construct a solid home, and those that want to refresh their previously held knowledge about building.
