Houses without Names: Architectural Nomenclature and the Classification of America?s Common Houses
Thomas C. Hubka
In this innovative, copiously illustrated guide, Thomas C. Hubka considers why most ordinary, working-class houses in the US lack an adequate identifying nomenclature and proposes new ways to name and classify these anonymous structures, shedding a fresh light on their role in the development of American domestic culture and its housing landscape.
