This bulletin is prepared as an aid to designers and property owners in planning low-cost farmhouses, though it is recognized that many of the features suggested cannot be put into farmhouses built at the lower cost levels. However, all farmhouses should provide shelter and space for cooking, eating, sleeping, child care, leisure activities, storage, household tasks, and certain kinds of work that are more or less peculiar to farm life.

Printed in b&w. U.S. History is designed to meet the scope and sequence requirements of most introductory courses. The text provides a balanced approach to U.S. history, considering the people, events, and ideas that have shaped the United States from both the top down (politics, economics, diplomacy) and bottom up (eyewitness accounts, lived experience). U.S. History covers key forces that form the American experience, with particular attention to issues of race, class, and gender.
