Preserving Old Barns is a wonderful resource for barn owners to assess, care for, and celebrate their special structures. This illustrated, full color second edition features over two hundred pictures, one hundred pages of new information from author John Porter, and barn preservation techniques from timber framer Arron Sturgis. It provides a practical understanding of the history, function, and preservation of old barns.
Author John Porter writes from the vantage point of one who grew up on a dairy farm, working every day in 1850s barns. He spent his career working as a Cooperative Extension Educator, helping people retrofit old barns and build new ones to meet the changing demands of agriculture.
Photographer Lowell Fewster of Bloomfield, Connecticut, often accompanied John Porter on summer tours of New Hampshire barns. Lowell supplied many new color photographs, including the front cover images and others as noted in the section showing examples of preserved barns.
