Summary:

"By far the largest part of the publication shows houses of moderate cost, quite within reach of the great mass of modest-salaried men. It has been the aim to illustrate these in as concise a form as possible, giving floor plans, in most cases, in addition to exterior views of the building, and sometimes even interiors. Wherever possible, the cost of the building has been given... . It has been the aim to show as large a variety of types and styles of homes as possible, not only as to plans, but also to materials used. ... A few pages have been devoted to typical apartment houses of different sizes."--Preface.
