Summary:

A guide to Dutch house construction, particularly canal houses which define cities like Amstersdam and Haarlem. Originally engineered in the the 17th century for merchant landowners who wished to use their homes as places of business, these iconic structures were rarely more than 30 feet wide and were characterized by tall, narrow windows and decorative gable tops. Van Straaten introduces the reader to the "latest methods" of Dutch construction, with exemplary villas, office buildings, country houses, and others
