This book examines all houses in the North Queensland region in the period 1861-1920. The study begins with a brief description of the region and investigates whether any climatic or environmental factors were influential in the design of the buildings.

A chapter is devoted to a critical examination of the origins of one construction technique - the sawn timber stud-framed wall - which dominated all building construction in North Queensland in the period.
