SUMMARY- All interior photographs are black-and-white. You get a cliff notes description of this type of building and how they're raised.
Shire Publications always includes a reading list and a visitor or museum listing where you can see real examples of the subject matter of the issue. I love that feature of these books and think it's worth the price of admission all by itself!
