Southeast Chapter of the Society of Architectural Historians Award of Excellence for a Book Takes us on a journey to the heart and soul of Seminole life--the chickee. Dilley ably navigates archaeology, architecture, and oral history to tell the story of the Seminole house, from its origins, through its persistence in the face of modernization, and ending with a glimpse into the future.--Ryan Wheeler, director, Robert S. Peabody Museum of Archaeology

Here we have as close as we can get to an inside view of life in a chickee and the people who made them.--Brent Weisman, co-editor of The Florida Journals of Frank Hamilton Cushing
