Excerpt from The White Pine, Vol. 1: Series of Architectural Monographs, "New England" Colonial Hovses These thoughtful expressions of appreciation have created an atmosphere of enthusiasm among those responsible for bringing to your attention, by means of this Monograph Series, the fact that White Pine is not exhausted, and that there is still an abundance of this wood obtainable in all markets, and their receipt has given added stimulus and direction to our work. It is a further pleasure to learn from the many comments received that the architects of the country have been successfully reached through these Monographs. We are frankly trying to interest you and tell you, not that White Pine, as a building material, is good - you know that - but that it is still abundantly available for your use, and we are very glad to have dis covered that the method we have chosen meets with your approval and commendation. We hope that the profession will agree with the architect whose sentiments we quote. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
