Historical reference

Just found this book:

Must for anyone restoring a Queenslander. I also purchased this : The Queensland House

http://www.oldhouses.com.au/docs/books/ausbooks.html

I am committed to restore this old girl to as much original as possible. The lounge room was an old veranda and the bathroom is an add on, however the rest of the house will be returned to as original.

These books detail the history, reasoning and techniques in building these houses. They are absolutely fantastic. I was glued to every single page.
