BY 
M. F. CUMMINGS, A.M., Architect, 
Associate Author of “Architecture, by Cummings 
& Miller,” and “Modern American Archi¬ 
tecture, by Cummings & Miller.” 
Nearly eight years ago, the author of this work, 
in connection with Mr. C. C. Miller, architect, 
published a work on architectural details, which, 
as soon as it was presented to the architects, car¬ 
penters, and builders of the country, met with a 
rapid sale; and, judging from the number of edi¬ 
tions through which it lias passed, and the great 
circulation reached, it must have met the approval 
of those most interested in practical architectural 
works, and must have filled, in a measure, a want 
before unsupplied. 
The success of that book lias induced the author 
to publish a second one, which is now presented to 
the public, and in it will be found an extensive 
collection of desig-ns illustrating the features 
which go to make up structures such as are 
needed to meet the wants of the American 
people. 
What lias been aimed at is this : To present a 
mass of architectural details, easy of construction, 
pleasing in form, and generally of an inexpensive 
character, and all so designed that a great variety 
of selections may be made from them, which, when 
combined in a building, will produce a harmonious 
whole; and it is believed by the author that this 
work will lie found to he of value, and that its 
design is practicable, for there are hundreds of 
towns and villages,.in all the States of the Union, 
in which the wants of the people continually de¬ 
mand the erection of buildings, largely of wood, 
and which in the hands of the builder and work¬ 
man may be made elegant and pleasing in all their 
features, provided they have at hand a guide such 
as this book is intended to he.
