Cape May's Gingerbread Gems

Sixty-five color images of summer cottages and guesthouses: a treasured souvenir of New Jerseys southern cape, and an indispensable reference for Victorian Era architecture and exterior ornamentation. Examples of Carpenter Gothic, Gothic Revival, Italianate, Second Empire, Edwardian, American Bracketed Villa, and Stick Styles are presented, with work by celebrated architects Frank Furness, Samuel Sloan, and Stephen Decatur Button.
