Inhaltsangabe:

Massive structures created with the use of native materials, and by the simplest yet most practical methods, the barn is a beautiful and powerful form. As a place of shelter, of work, and of life, the barn is an essential and esteemed form in ancient and modern architecture both in Europe and America, and a favorite dwelling for people today. The origins of the barn, its uniqueness and importance as a structure, along with the techniques and tools necessary in raising a barn are examined here.
From medieval European barns to nineteenth-century Pennsylvania Dutch barns to the most modern timber framed structures, the barn has become not only a practical work place, but a place to restore, preserve, and live in as well.
