Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from School Architecture: A General Treatise for the Use of Architects and Others
IN this book a general view is given of typical examples of the schools in most of the countries in which public education is well developed. The writer has sought to keep within the province of the architect, and not to trespass upon that of the educator, or of the engineering, sanitary, or hygienic expert. His object has been to compile a compact handbook, useful for architects and others who are interested in the subject; hence, in most cases he has avoided detailed descriptions of buildings, as the plans and other illustrations would appear to furnish all further necessary data. In accord ance with this idea references in the index are made to some features of the plans which are not mentioned in the text.
