NOTICES OF THE PRE33. 



" This Book will effect more in the way of making a general and 

 healthy taste for Architecture, even in the cheapest dwellings, 

 than anything which has been issued from the Press "' — N. V. 

 Courier <J- Enijuirer. 



" This work is eminently a contribution to knowledge— a combi- 

 nation of jus^ such knowledge as was wanted — and the general 

 communication of which to the minds of our wide-spread popula- 

 tion, will accomplish an inestimable service. If our mechanics 

 and tradesmen will consult the drawings, they will find that very 

 limited pecuniary resources are sufficient to secure a dwelling that 

 will satisfy their necessities, and minister to their comfort as n ■ 

 pasteboard Villa or gingerbread Castle ever could." — New Eng ■ 

 lander. 



'■ No work of more practical and general value has been issue i 

 from the American Press for a long time." — Jilbany Mlas.

 never issued so elaborate and splendid a volume as the ' Country
