In this book, the reader is taken on a tour of twelve rooms, each representative of a significant period in America's artistic past. So rich is the tour, that we see not only the rooms, but the history, attitudes and biases, the entertainments and amusements, the architecture, the furniture style, and the mode of dress that characterize each period.
