The making of home : the 500-year story of how our houses became our homes / Judith Flanders. by Flanders, Judith. New York : Thomas Dunne Books / St. Martin's Press, 2015. Subjects Dwellings -- History.   Dwellings -- Social aspects. ISBN:  9781250067357 (hardcover) : 1250067359 (hardcover) Description:  xii, 346 pages : illustrations (chiefly color) ; 25 cm. Edition:  First U.S. edition. Requests:  0 Summary:  In The Making of Home, Flanders traces the evolution of the house from the sixteenth to the early twentieth century across northern Europe and America, showing how the homes we know today bear only a faint resemblance to homes though history. What turned a house into a home? Why did northwestern Europe, a politically unimportant, sociologically underdeveloped region of the world, suddenly became the powerhouse of the Industrial Revolution, the capitalist crucible that created modernity? While investigating these important questions, Flanders uncovers the fascinating development of ordinary household items--from cutlery, chairs and curtains, to fitted kitchens, plumbing and windows--while also dismantling many domestic myths.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 392.3609 Fl Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kailua-Kona Public Library Adult Nonfiction 392.3609 Fl Checked In Add Copy to MyList
