Historic preservation cover

Historic preservation

by Norman Tyler

"Historic Preservation is the only book that covers the gamut of preservation issues in layman's language: the philosophy and history of the movement, the role of government, the documentation and designation of historic properties, establishing a historic district, sensitive architectural design and planning, preservation technology, and the economics of building rehabilitation, plus a survey of architectural styles and an extensive list of preservation resources. It is an ideal introduction to the field for students and homeowners, local officials, and community leaders."--BOOK JACKET.
