Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Homes of Character Your uneven, woodsy site wants a rambling-roofed, close-to-the ground design, one that will look as if it grew there without much human help, that will take kindly to clambering vines and winding cobblestone paths and rustic seats in unexpected nooks under the trees. On the other hand, such a design in its turn would be quite out of place on a level, smooth-shaven lawn with a few fine trees rising here and there and trim, formal garden plots. This kind ofa site demands the dignity, the pure, severe lines of the colonial or semi colonial home. The same advance in adaptation to actual artistic and practical needs is shown in modern interior arrangement. Gone is the parlor with its hideous contorted furniture, the custom of leaving the best room in the house utterly unused except on rare oc casions. Instead we find the living room, a place where the truly beautiful is also comfortable to live with, where nothing is too nice for everyday, and yet every thing speaks to the guest of a high standard of culture and comfort. This is the home ideal enshrined in the imagination of almost all families today. And this is the ideal which Lewis helps them to express. The public has been educated to demand this sort of home, but there are very few home builders. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Successful Houses There are comparatively few people who at one time or another do not have to face the problem of household furniture and decoration, and who do not at such times experience a sensation of comparative helplessness. To assist them there have been published two classes of books only, one in which the information is of the most shocking character, utterly devoid of taste, judgment or good sense; the other in which the laws are of a learned and technical character, but difficult of application by private persons in their own homes. Many of the latter class of publications are great authority, and could their intent be thoroughly absorbed would lead to radical improvements in the popular ideal of household decoration; but unfor tunately, besides the ponderous text, the illustrations are usually chosen from views of palaces and other great houses, and convey no suggestions to the discouraged housewife with a few hundred dollars to expend at most. The author in this volume has attempted to take another course, to describe, without formulae, certain undeniable principles, to indicate their application, and to illustrate the result by giving pictures of the interiors of eminently good houses. Some of these are inexpensive, some compara tively costly, but all are the homes of private citizens without any especial pretense of great wealth. The author is indebted for this opportunity to the series of articles published in The House Beautiful, entitled Successful Houses, for which the owners have allowed these photographs to be taken.

This book was released on 2018-01-19 with total page 698 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Happy Homes and the Hearts That Make Them, or Thrifty People and Why They Thrive The marked interest which attaches to Mr. Smiles' productions is chieﬂy due to his happy use of biography. Readers who tire of extended biographical histories find here groups of the wise and distinguished of earth, each giving testimony to the various principles the author wishes to inculcate. This method of applying the accumulated experience and testimony of the past to illustrate and enforce principles, although by no means new, is certainly a most effective method of im pressing truth. The interest excited by the novel arises solely from our interest in the lives and struggles of men and women. They are interesting biographies. But much more interest should attach to lives actually lived and conquests actually made, provided they are produced with equal care. The home is the epitome of society and government. The application of these principles to every member of the home - the importance of their inculcation in the home where character is chieﬂy molded - and the value of such lessons in making every home what it may be and should be, has dictated the title, Happy Homes, and the Hearts that Make Them.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Curious Homes and Their Tenants A novel feature in the present volume is the number of engravings it contains which are unnoticed in the letterpress. The purpose of their introduction is not alone to render the book more attractive, but, if possible, to extend its use beyond its text. The inten tion is that these additional drawings, the subject of each of which has been carefully selected on account of some special feature of interest it possesses, shall be instrumental in introducing the pupil into new and delightful fields of research. It is suggested, as an exercise of considerable value and utility, that the young student shall be required to embody the results of his investigations in written or oral accounts of the subjects illustrated, giving in every case special atten tion to details rather than generalizations, and to the habits and manner of life of the creature described rather than the place it occupies in the more or less artificial systems of naturalists.

His paper on A Consular Experience likewise is a frank talk behind the door with his reader, but is in effect a series of humorous studies of character in which this silent man indulged. Between these two personal, lightly autobiographical disclosures was a third, which perhaps has been even more read, for it stands at the entrance of his most famous book, The Scarlet Letter.
