Synopsis
Excerpt from The Small House for a Moderate Income
N the publishing of this book, which deals exclusively with the Small house in its various phases, it is my intention to promote the building of the attractive house, in keeping with our present day mode of living. It is most encouraging to find that in recent years greater attention is being given to the building of small houses than ever before. The rapid development of suburban tracts of land in almost every part of the country has created a wide spread demand for good houses of intelligent design, planned with an idea of comfort and convenience as well as artistic merit. In designing the houses which are illustrated and described, I have kept these points well in mind, also that most important factor expense.
