This book preserves a record of the log houses, stores, inns, churches, schools, jails, and barns that have already become all too few in the Texas countryside. Terry Jordan explores the use of log buildings among several different Texas cultural groups and traces their construction techniques from their European and eastern American origins UR - https://doi.org/10.7560/780514 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9780292759923 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9780292759923/original ER -
