HOMES IN CITY AND COUNTRY 
With ioo Illustrations, 8 vo, $2.00 
A volume made up from the interesting series of 
articles recently issued in Scribner’s Magazine. They are 
by writers of recognized authority, and are beautifully 
illustrated. They relate to home winning and to the 
characteristic features of city, suburban, and country 
houses, with suggestions as to the most desirable features 
of each class. Co-operative house-building is also fully 
explained. The illustrations, which constitute a very 
valuable feature of the work, consist of one hundred en- 
gravings of plans for houses, views of the grounds, and 
drawings of representative city and country houses in many 
parts of the l/nited States. They represent American 
architecture from colonial times down to the present.
