Originally published in 1920, this tiny book has numerous drawings of cabins in the Adirondack style. The first 45 pages discuss how to build log cabin furniture and simple brush camp and lean-to structures. Pages 46-47 introduce the more extensive cabins. You'll find structures measuring 12 x 16 feet to chalets that function as inns for many weary travelers. Drawings are pen and ink and show mostly exteriors. The interior drawings that are shown are interesting, showing fireplaces, stairways, furniture, and beamed ceilings. If you love adirondack style cabins/cottages this book will help to feed your imagination. If you were hoping to look at floor plans... get out your magnifying glass. Most of the floor plans are no more than 2 inches square. I still love this little book and refer back to it all the time. It would be a nice addition to your collection of log cabin books.
