First edition hardcover with dust jacket. 144 pp. Idea book for making the perfect porch no matter the style or location. Includes ideas for areas of solitude, outdoor rooms for parties, and the essentials for relaxation. For every type of house and for every family's style, there is a perfect porch. Whether you want a quiet outdoor niche where family members can lounge with a good summer read, or a casual front porch that encourages passing neighbors to stop and chat, over the years porch styles have developed that foster these very activities.
