What We're Reading: Tracy

A-Frame, by Chad Randl.

A-frame houses have always appealed to me. Their kitsch factor is unbeatable, as is their nostalgic quality, reminiscent of trips "up north" where a-frames abound. In this engaging history, author Chad Randl traces the development of a-frame architecture and explores its sociological import. Included are original ads, vintage family photos, cartoons, even blueprints, so you can build your own a-frame in a weekend!
