Summary:

"Four hundred artful color and black and white illustrations provide a comprehensive view of houses in the lower Mississippi River Valley. These magnificent homes reflect diverse cultural back grounds and adaptations to this scenic area, which includes regions of Mississippi, Louisiana, Arkansas, Illinois, Tennessee, and Missouri. Schuler traces the use of the French Colonical, Greek Revival, and Vernacular styles in each region, resulting in a flavorful sampling. 'Mississippi Valley Architecture' is many definitive works incorporated into one volume. Facades, floor plans, and details depic homes built between 1700 and the beginning of the war between the states. This handsome, authoritative work will be indispensible in providing restoration and renovation ideas for one's own home"--Inside cover.
