The Cape Cod cottage has been one of America's most popular home styles for almost four hundred years. While a perennial domestic favorite, historians have long ignored the modest Cape Cod, relegating it to a vernacular footnote along with barns and mills. In "The Cape Cod Cottage" architectural historian and photographer William Morgan places this uniquely American housea remarkable combination of necessity and traditionin its historical context and makes a compellingargument for the reassessment of its place in the history of American architecture. "The Cape Cod Cottage" follows the uniquely American house type from its earliest beginnings in the colonial period, through its spread across New England, to its embrace as a suburban ideal in the twentieth century, and its reinterpretation by contemporary architects. Historical images oflost Capes augment beautiful new photographs taken speci cally for the book. As a tribute to a special house, "The Cape Cod Cottage" is an appeal to preserve the Cape's legacy and an essential document of this unique architectural icon."
