Cozy, charming, and distinctly Californian, the low, rambling bungalow is an enduring architectural icon, designed to survive earthquakes. Wilson, aka "The Bungalow Man," collected 112 of the most popular and economic blueprints of his time — plus an illustration or photograph of each completed house. A wonderful time capsule that still offers a wealth of valuable insights. Reprint of the Henry L. Wilson, Chicago, 1910 edition.
