Early Connecticut Houses: A Historical and Architectural Study is a book written by Norman Morrison Isham and published in 1900. The book is a comprehensive study of the architectural styles and history of early houses in Connecticut, from the earliest settlements in the 17th century to the end of the 18th century. The author examines the various styles of architecture that were popular during this time, including the English, Dutch, and French styles, and provides detailed descriptions and illustrations of each style. Isham also delves into the social and cultural context of these houses, exploring the lives of the people who built and lived in them, and how their homes reflected their values and beliefs. He provides a wealth of information on the construction techniques, materials, and decorative elements used in these houses, and how they evolved over time. Throughout the book, Isham emphasizes the importance of preserving these historic houses as a vital part of Connecticut's cultural heritage. He argues that these houses are not only important for their architectural value, but also for the stories they tell about the people who built and lived in them. Overall, Early Connecticut Houses is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and architecture of early American homes, and a must-read for anyone interested in the cultural heritage of Connecticut.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
