"Beginning with McKim, Mead, Bigelow, and White's famous sketching trip of 1877, architects have traditionally recorded the historic architecture of northern New England and incorporated its imagery into their own designs.
Colonial Revival Maine provides an account of how this interest in the classical influences of colonial- and federal-era buildings engaged the imagination of a group of architects and their draftsmen in the late nineteenth century. Together, these designers created the charming streetscapes and bucolic retreats that today dot the Maine coast."
"The "summer cottages" built for a wealthy Boston elite in York, the Kennebunks, North Haven, Sorrento, and other resort communities form the focus of this book. Generously illustrated with period drawings and archival images as well as newly commissioned photographs, Colonial revival Maine creates a rich portrait of one of America's favorite architectural styles in what is still today one of its most glorious destinations."--Jacket.
