Maryland in the Civil War: A House Divided (1994) with Robert I. Jr Cottom
The Baltimore Rowhouse (1999) with Charles Belfoure
"Perhaps no other American city is so defined by an architectural form as Baltimore is by the rowhouse -- brick facades, marching up and down the gentle hills of this Mid-Atlantic port city. The Baltimore Rowhouse tells the fascinating 200-year story of this building type. It chronicles the evolution of he rowhouse from its origins as speculative housing for merchants and laborers i the 1790s and for newly arrived immigrants after 1850 , through its reclamation and renovation urban pioneers and the local governments beginning in the 1970s."The Architecture of Baltimore: An Illustrated History (2004) edited by Mary Ellen Hayward and Frank R. Shivers with contributions from Charles B. Duff, Jr., Christopher Weeks, Edward Gunts, Herbert H. Harwood, Jr., John Dorsey, Phoebe B. Stanton, Robert L. Alexander, and Robert J. Brugger
A comprehensive guide to Baltimore's architectural heritage—lost and still-standing alike. Illustrated with nearly 600 photographs, architectural plans, maps, and details, this impressive work of scholarship also offers an engaging narrative of the history of Baltimore itself—its men and women of all stations, its taste and traditional preferences, its good choices and lamentable ones, and its built environment as a social and cultural chronicle.
