Reccommended June 23, 2009
Warren Mallett
By far the best book about the unique style of mid century homes I have come across. Much better source of information for 50's & 60's interior than Modern Retro or other similar publications.
Beautifully illustrated, perhaps the only thing I would have liked to have seen was the inclusion of a few floor plans - however that is not really the intended scope of the book.

Atomic Ranch February 19, 2009
Christopher C. Rosala
Atomic Ranch is one of the best 50's and 60's retro house/design books I have seen! Photographs are wonderful and text is interesting. A must for anyone interested in retro houses and design.

If you like the magazine -- get the book January 6, 2009
B. Gentry
Awesome reference book. Very informative on history of ranch homes but the main purpose is of course detailing the architecture and decorating style that make up these fabulous homes. Just enough detail without becoming tedious. If you're in to modernism and ranch homes you won't be disappointed.

Cool Book for 60s Mod Fans May 8, 2008
Brenda K. Mull (Harrison, TN United States)
Good book with lots of interior and exterior pictures of houses. Only improvement would be more mod accessories shown, but overall I would recommend.
