5Barn, the art of a working building  Jun 18, 2000 By Chuck Kimball
This book is truely an inspiration... the images and descriptions will bring great memories of Barns to your mind, will bring tears to your eyes if you spent childhood fantasies in "the barn", and might inspire you to save, build, or restore a barn someday... thank you Elric, Alexander , and David, whoever and wherever you are for presenting such a work...It stays on the table, within easy reach...

5Best Ever Barn Book  Jan 03, 2001 By James T. Justice
Endersby and fellow authors, using an intelligent combination of pictures, drawings, and text to successfully depict both finished buildings and structural detail, have written the definitive book on barns. They trace the lineage of American barns from their European roots in a lively, readable, informative format. In addition to it's functional qualities, the book is quite handsome, a stunning addition to the library of anyone who likes barns. Quite simply, this is the best book on barns I have ever seen.


4The Art of a Working Barn  Mar 11, 2012 By Ralph Elwell
Wonderful oversize book came quickly and arrived in good condition. Very few New England barns hence 4 stars. One architectural note of interest was the various illustrations of framing details, including an example of how one barn was erected by hand.


5BARN is a great book  Jun 02, 2010 By Martyn Inkley "vet school nerd"
BARN is a great book for people that love old barns and the way they were biult with such simple tools.
