Country Schoolhouses

Country Schoolhouses is a book written by James Johonnot in 1866 that provides a comprehensive guide for building schoolhouses in rural areas. The book includes detailed elevations, plans, and specifications with estimates for construction costs, as well as directions for builders on how to erect the building. The author offers advice on selecting the site, designing the building, and furnishing it with appropriate equipment. The book also includes a chapter on ventilation and heating, which was a critical concern in the days before modern HVAC systems. Johonnot's work is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of education or the architecture of rural schoolhouses in the mid-19th century.Suggestions As To School Grounds, Furniture, Apparatus, Etc.
