Description: Bluegrass Houses and Their Traditions, Transylvania Press (1932). Second Trade Edition. Study of historically and culturally significant homes of central Kentucky. An account of over 50 ante-bellum mansions and the families that built them, illustrated with both architectural and equine photography. The cover of this 90-year old hardback book shows significant signs of wear and age, including scuff marks, rubbed edges, and deterioration of the cloth cover on the spine (see pictures). The inside cover and flyleaf page are browned and separating from the hinge. The name of a previous owner is written in ink. The hinges are secure and the binding is tight. All early and final pages are significantly browned. Interior pages are brighter white but with minor foxing and a few stains. All text and the fascinating architectural photographs are clear and sharp. Your purchase helps support the Lexington Public Library (Lexington, KY).
