Hardcover. Light green cloth. BW photo-illustrated DJ; 276 pp. Numerous bw plates. The Texas Architectural Survey--Sponsored By the Amon Carter Museum of Western Art and the School of Architecture, the University of Texas. The homes of Texas present charming evidence of the diversity of national cultures from which Texans came. This book provides a visual summary of the state's dramatic history from the time Anglo-Americans first entered the region--already rich in its Spanish architectural heritage--until the close of the century. Dog-run cabins, built by Stephen F. Austin and his original three hundred colonists when they came to the virgin-wood areas of Texas, and the more sophisticated farm houses they fashioned later, were the contribution of the early Anglo-Americans to Texas home architecture. The Germans, seeking political freedom and economic opportunity in a new land, created homes of half-timber, of Fachwerk, constructed in accordance with medieval building techniques. The more elegant and stately Greek Revival style of home then reached Texas, followed after the Civil War by various modifications of the elaborate and decorative Victorian house. Texas Homes of the Nineteenth Century is the first publication to result from the Texas Architectural Survey, sponsored jointly by the Amon Carter Museum of Western Art in Fort Worth and the School of Architecture of The University of Texas. The purpose of the survey is to preserve the fast-disappearing record of the state's visual history. The second volume in the series will be concerned with the public buildings of Texas.--From jacket flap.
