Overview
New edition of a work first published in 1979 (though changes are not evident, and it might better be described as a reprint). Text, photos, and some line drawings depict various methods, materials, styles, and forms used to construct barns, outbuildings, gates, fences, and water-holding structures, by Texas settlers of the early 19th century. A section on restoration and preservation discusses how to keep from losing this heritage. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, ORSynopsis
