The text is warm and engaging and speaks to the heart of those of us who love historic homes; and country and early american ambience and style. I havent seen any of the homes hes chosen in any other publications. The reason I did not give this book 5 stars is because of the quality of the photographs. It appears some of the photos have been taken in rooms with natural light and with any available over-head lighting turned on to high beam. This does not do justice to these beautiful homes; as the images and their details would have been sharper had professional photographic lighting been used. Photo credits go to the author and his wife with some being taken by another person for whom the author credits as providing the best photographs in the books. I still like this book very much and Im not sorry I bought it. In fact; I hope Tim Tanner does more books; but hopefully next time he has more access to professional photography.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Beautiful photosBy Sam CochranI bought two of his books. Both are beautiful with stunning photographs. I just like looking at old country and early American furniture for things to copy; either quirky details or whole pieces. I barely read the text; to be honest; so I wont comment on that aspect; but I will say the photos of rooms are not great for studying the individual pieces furniture. This is not a criticism--just to say these books wouldnt be my first choice if I were looking for furniture. That said I really do enjoy looking at these books; even though Im not really the target audience. My only complaint might be that a few too many of the photos feature the work of David T. Smith. I love his workshops stuff and have learned a lot from him; but there comes a point when the photos seem like theyre from an advertising brochure. The other book I bought was Early American Country Interiors; another beautiful book.. I am happy to have both.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Good for what it isBy RGMacGood for what it is. Same basic book as "Early American Country Interiors" with a few format changes and of course different homes. As I said there; this is about creating the modern interior designers concept of what a "country" faux early american home should look like for those into that style. Realize this has nothing to do with historical authenticity; unless you think people really hung corn up in their living rooms; collected checker boards and hung them in the hallway; or took all their nesting boxes out and stacked them up like a Christmas tree; when in fact they were made to nest. Theres a lot of silliness here (I enjoyed the designer who said the objects on your mantle basically didnt matter so long as they were the correct size. So there you go.) but also some genuinely beautiful houses and rooms that make it a worth while purchase. Big emphasis on the influence that David T. Smith has had on kitchens; in both this and the Interiors book.
