Some page discoloration or pages origninally a bit off color.. Minor, Wendell (Jacket Illustration). 341 p. Diagram on endpapers. A Note on Terminology. Sources. Tracy Kidder's account of the building of a house in Massachusetts is as riveting as a novel, describing with wit and clarity not only the nuts, bolts, and beams involved in the actual project, but the sometimes conflicting personalities of the architect, the builders, and the clients. An admirable blend of the technical and the personal. The author won a Pulitizer Prize in 1981 for The Soul of a New Machine.
