General Notes

Note

Notes: No. 2, Vol. XIV. The 78th monograph of the White Pine Series. Full title: An Architectural Monograph: The Charm of Old Charleston: A New World City of Old World Memories . . . Containing Also Measured Drawings from the George F. Lindsay Collection of Early American Documents. The whole imposingly embellished by reproductions of beautiful photographs by Kenneth Clark. Edited by Russell F. Whitehead. The Series Monographs provided visual documentation of classical and unique applications of White Pine, illustrated with crisp photography of the time and vivid illustrations with detailed editorial by well-respected American architects and builders. For more than 25 years, the Monographs became an industry favorite, gaining loyal readership across the country. They earned a valuable place as mainstream architectural reference literature. And for those fortunate enough, often can be found today preserved and treasured in architectural libraries, homes and vintage book stores.
