"This is a loving memorial -- in text and pictures -- to thirteen New England houses and the persons who lived in them. . The descriptions are in no sense architectural analyses or year-by-year records of occupancy. They are instead beautifully compressed appreciations of the man or woman -- writer, statesman, scientist, poet, artisan -- who stamped each house with its special character and feeling, a particular atmosphere which the visitor will find persisting today".
