Chronicles the architecture, the objects, the changes that occurred over the centuries, and the people involved, regarding the Warner House of Portsmouth, New Hampshire. The two-story brick dwelling was uilt in 1716, and was saved from demolition in 1932. "The story of the Warner House is told with a clarity that is too often missing from most local histories. The authors proudly recount the many things that have been learned about the place over the past two decades such as the original paint schemes and room funcations but are just as candid about the many objects and events that remained shrouded in mystery." (back cover) Interesting AND lovely.
