Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Architectural Monograph on the Town of Suffield, Connecticut And it is New England that gives us, as the symbol and type of the American home, the old, familiar white house with the green blinds. Regardless of the many and varied kinds of houses we build, to satisfy architectural whims; that early tradition of the white house with the green blinds is never entirely absent from our thoughts or from our instinctive desires. New England possesses, in a subtle but com pelling way, a complete difference from any other part of the country. Although its spirit is manifest in our national temperament, and in much of our national instinct, New England lies very definitely on the Connecticut side of a State line and New York on the other. The demar cation is almost as distinct as the difference in color on the map. In Connecticut there are many quiet inland villages and towns which easily escape discovery by the architectural explorer. They are off the beaten track, and have none of the wide familiar ity of the well known seaport towns and much visited inland places of Massachusetts and Rhode Island.
