Along country roads one sees traditional farmhouses accompanied by complexes of barns and other buildings. Most of these buildings were raised by the farmers themselves or local craftsmen, without formal plans or architectural drawings. Every building tells a story. From wooden stables to stone fences, the essence of the farm presents an enchanting visual history. This book is an illustrated history of such places and buildings with a stunning array of interior and exterior photos that are the stories from generations of families. It shows farm buildings being saved and restored and representing their past and future.
