What exactly is the Pennsylvania German Bank Barn? Did you know that each different roof slope has its own name? What is an Adze, a Bent, or the Cantilever? In “THE PENNSYLVANIA BARN SCRAPBOOK Volume I – THE ABC’s OF THE TIMBER FRAMED BARN”, we will answer these questions. We will look at the difference between Amish, bank, log, pole, round, shed, stone, and timber framed barns; as well as how they were built and the tools used to build them. Every barn has a story and some can be best told in pictures. This volume features over 200 pictures -150 in color – of barns and sheds from 90 farms.
