Description
The traditional buildings of Norway--its farmhouses and rural churches--represent a small but rich manifestation of the art and craft of wooden architecture. Build from the Middle Ages through the eighteenth century, many still in use today, these structures attest to the enduring and timeless appeal of a beauty that springs from a strong sensitivity to nature, superior craftsmanship, and utility. This book surveys the Norwegian tradition of building wooden houses and churches, describes surviving examples, and discusses log and stave details
