"The satiric pen of Osbert Lancaster, England's best-known politico-social cartoonist, here sets forth Western man's record as a builder of homes. Anyone who lives beneath a roof will find this a beguiling book. As a pictorial history of domestic architecture it is a swift and accurate guide. And it is executed with a verve and humor assuring hours of high entertainment."--Dust jacket flap.
