"These pages document Schafer's love...and illustrate how
thoughtful architecture can infuse the spaces in which we live with
meaning." ~Veranda Magazine
"I opened the book, and before I knew it, a few hours had passed.
And really, I can’t imagine a better way to spend a few hours than
to read Gil’s engaging text and pore over the big, beautiful photos
of his work." ~The Peak of Chic
"Anyone that has loved a house--or wants to fall in love all over
again with their old one should get this book. Better yet-if you
don't believe in Love- get the book, Schafer will convince you it
can be found at Home." ~Littleaugury.com
"This is a remarkably good book, "The Great American House", should
be on your list." ~mrsblandings.blogspot.com
