His magazine,\u003ci\u003e The Craftsman,\u003c\/i\u003e was a major forum for the movement's ideas and concepts ― ideas which today are enjoying a renaissance in the design community. \u003cbr\u003eThe present publication features 36 articles that appeared in \u003ci\u003eThe Craftsman \u003c\/i\u003ebetween 1903 and 1916.

A few of the most modest homes ― according to the magazine ― could even be constructed by persons with a minimum of masonry and carpentry experience. Interiors reflected the simple lines of the exteriors and generally included an ample fireplace (often of fieldstone construction), fireside benches, built-in bookcases and sideboards, plus walls, floors, and ceiling beams decorated ― preferably ― in colors that would harmonize with the structure's natural surroundings. \u003cbr\u003eThis inexpensive volume of selected \u003ci\u003eCraftsman\u003c\/i\u003e articles provides collectors of Americana with a fascinating glimpse of an influential and thoroughly American style of architectural design and construction. \u003ci\u003eCraftsman Bungalows\u003c\/i\u003e will be welcomed as a primary source of information and ideas by architects, students, and historians of architecture, preservationists, restorers ― anyone interested in the Arts and Crafts movement in America. \u003cbr\u003eDover (1988) republication of 36 articles from\u003ci\u003e The Craftsman\u003c\/i\u003e magazine, 1903–1916. \u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eDover Original.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Edited by Gustav Stickley","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47159539302721,"sku":"9780486258294","price":9.57,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0812\/3262\/5985\/products\/9780486258294.jpg?v=1710180689"},{"product_id":"9780486402987","title":"Sinking of the Titanic","description":"Published in 1912 within months of the sinking of the \u003ci\u003eTitanic, \u003c\/i\u003ethis \"memorial edition\" of first-hand accounts by survivors, people in rescue boats, and other on-the-scene witnesses offers heart-wrenching testimony about the great disaster, steeped in the sentiments of the day.\u003cbr\u003e Surviving passengers recount heart-breaking tales of parting with loved ones, watching the great ship sink while the steadfast band played \"Nearer, My God, to Thee,\" and floating helplessly for long hours on icy seas.

Geographically remote from the stylistic restrictions of Europe, American architects used new plans and construction elements to create fresh new dwellings with individual beauty and charm. \u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eEarly American Houses \u003c\/i\u003eincludes over 100 photographs and illustrations that highlight the architecture of young America, with a particular focus on the Tudor and late Gothic styles that ultimately shaped the distinctive house designs of today.
