Resumen:
The American Porch. Like the pivotal clue in a Conan Doyle story, the American porch hides itself in plain sight. But it is a national treasure, one with a colorful and surprising history. In this lively book, Michael Dolan draws on architecture, literature, film, photography, and pop culture, from ancient Greece to modern day, to show how the porch evolved into an icon of Americana. There's a personal side to all this, too: Dolan designed and oversaw construction of a classic four-pillared front porch to grace his 1926 bungalow in his hometown of Washington, D.C. The story of that porch's decay and restoration not only inspired the book but serves as a touchstone in the author's story. |
