Download or read book Desolate Barns of the American West written by Marques Vickers and published by Marquis Publishing. This book was released on 2017-06-28 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edition represents a photographic celebration of damaged and often abandoned barns and silos located within the rural Western United States. Over fifty structures are photographed amidst a backdrop of panoramic mountains, turbulent rivers and sagebrush flatlands. Many are inaccessible via roadways or difficult to approach due to private property restrictions. The captures images are spread over California, Oregon, Washington, Idaho and Montana. The objective of this photography project is to isolate the abandoned and frequently decaying remnants of a uniquely national architecture treasure. Barns and silos represent an iconic and important American rural tradition. An altered historic frontier has left many of these monoliths forsaken and deteriorating organically into the landscape. American agriculture has become forever transformed by advanced machinery, technology and the consolidation of land holdings. These remaining stately buildings represent a crossroads between traditional rural lifestyle and the effects of modernity. In numerous instances, timber framed structures undergo a gradual deterioration before collapsing into splinted heaps. Their disintegrating structural supports corrode until gravity ultimately prevails. The wood remnants are often simply left to blend harmoniously into the natural surroundings. The isolation and expansive landscape of the American northwest provides an evocative comparison to contemporary confined urban and suburban environments. The continuity of these utilitarian structures remains timeless in spite of their condition.

Book excerpt: Photographer Keithan captures on film the rural landscape's aging and historic barns. But rather than a sad chronicle of America's rural decline, she presents a visual story of endurance and perseverance, of a way of life that continues to thrive. The b&w photographs from each of Michigan's 80 counties are enriched by her narrative, often including histories from the barn owners themselves.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the glacier-flattened northwest to the Appalachian hills and valleys to the east and south, barns dot the Ohio landscape. Built with wooden nails and mortise-and-tenon joints and assembled with beams hand-hewn from nearby trees, some of these magnificent structures have witnessed three centuries. Many display the unique carpentry of masterful barn builders, including "mystery" wooden spikes and tongue-and-groove two-inch flooring. Sadly, a number of these barns, neglected for years, risk crumbling any day. Join artist and author Robert Kroeger on a trip to each of Ohio's eighty-eight counties to view some of the state's oldest and most historic barns before they're gone.

Download or read book Hand Raised written by Chere Jiusto and published by Montana Historical Society. This book was released on 2011 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Explore the hayloft, stalls, and hardware of a Montana barn and you will learn much about the state’s farm and ranch traditions. Crib barns, with walls of timber stacked like Lincoln logs, show the influence of French-Canadian and Scandinavian immigrants. Gambrel-roofed barns, which shed heavy snowfall and provide roomy haylofts, tell of the long Montana winters that necessitated ample hay storage. Tack rooms, once filled with harnesses and gear, tell of workhorses given shelter in heavy-duty stalls nearby. Beyond their utilitarian functions, barns are simply beautiful. Some stand proudly, their freshly painted red lines contrasting sharply with the golden wheat in surrounding fields. But some, less fortunate, are falling into disrepair. Marked by rotting timbers and broken windowpanes, these crumbling buildings still have much to teach us. Historic Barns of Montana presents the best, most unique, most significant, and most beautiful of these barns. Photographer Tom Ferris explored barns inside and out across Montana, snapping the hundreds of photographs in the book. Authors and architectural historians Chere Jiusto and Christine Brown help readers understand the significance of what they are looking at and tell the stories of individual barns. Historic Barns of Montana recognizes these buildings as both useful and beautiful, encourages their preservation, and honors the ranch and farm families that built them.

Download or read book Stables written by Kathryn Masson and published by Rizzoli Publications. This book was released on 2010-04-06 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the private to the historic to the state-of-the-art, a lavish tour of some of the most notable stables in the country. A celebration of horses and their "lodgings," this exquisite book covers horse country across the United States—from the East Coast to the Bluegrass, the prairie and mountain ranches, and to the Pacific Coast—and traces the origins of twenty-five stunning stables, from their vernacular beginnings in the early nineteenth century to the contemporary designs of today. Included are a farm in the countryside near Saratoga Springs, New York, which bears an 1830s-constructed main barn that originally housed draft horses and now accommodates retired race horses turned polo ponies, and a world-renowned Arabian horse-breeding farm in Santa Ynez Valley, California, that resembles a spa and country club with Mediterranean-style architecture and landscaping and has in the stable courtyard a stone fountain reminiscent of the ubiquitous waterworks in Moorish palaces. Uniquely spectacular, each selection is a reflection of its regional heritage. Featuring all-new color photography, Stables showcases the best of America’s diverse equine homes—a must-have for any horse or architecture enthusiast.
