Tolles deserves our highest commendation for the immense labor and considerable intelligence that produced a clear, detailed, and accurate history of Adirondack resort hotel buildings.
In 1979 Bryant F. Tolles, Jr., and Carolyn K. Tolles lovingly researched New Hampshire’s architectural treasures and selected the nearly four hundred extraordinary buildings described and illustrated in New Hampshire Architecture. Even twenty-five years later most of these structures still exist. Concise, interesting, and accurate written descriptions and maps accompany clear illustrations of churches, old mills, barns, mansions, libraries, and schools. Tourists and residents alike will be pleased to find the book, long out-of-print, is available once more.
Tolles deserves our highest commendation for the immense labor and considerable intelligence that produced a clear, detailed, and accurate history of Adirondack resort hotel buildings.
