Description: Trade paperback (1980) - book is an ex-library book with a label on the spine - that is the only indication that it was an ex-library book - there are no other stamps or markings - the outer covers have light wear - inner covers have light tanning - light spotting on outer edges of pages - otherwise book is in good condition. Blaser's well-illustrated book on wood in rural and rural-inspired architecture is perceptive and immensely satisfying. 216 pp with 120 b&w photos and 66 other plans, working drawings, elevations, etc. In German, English French. "...log and timber-framed structures in the alpine and sub-alpine parts of Switzerland, unsophisticated half-timbered buildings in Alsace, and wood houses in the towns of southwest Finland...." Blaser "values wood as a building material at its true worth -- both in the past and today -- and assesses its potentialities as well as its limitations."
