Tucker, Harry Z.

Abstract:

Tucker describes the fine architecture that is found in many of North Carolina's older homes, some dating back to the early 1700s. The highlight in many of them is the exquisitely carved mantel, as well as doorways, winding stairs, and beautiful fireplaces. The names of the men who did the work are long forgotten, and are remembered only through their extant works.
