Customer Reviews

What a wonderful addition to my Sears Homes Collection!

This is a great book and I have had a copy for many years. It has a wealth of information in it and I must admit, as with other Sears Homes Books, I couldn't put it down. There are lot's of photo's and floor plans throughout the book. Don't skip this one if you collect Sears Homes stuff.

Apparently a reprint of an old Sears Catalogue...

If you're going to buy *all* the books out there on Sears Homes, you'll certainly want this one in your collection. It's a reprint of the 1912 Sears Modern Homes catalog. And it has some designs of homes I'd not seen elsewhere and that makes it a valuable resource. But once again, it is JUST a reprint - not a contemporary book explaining the history and ongoing rehab of (now) historic Sears Catalogue Homes. That being said, I have two copies and frequently recommend this book at my lectures. Rose author, The Houses That Sears Built
