Book Description
Excerpt from The Bromwell Genealogy: Including Descendants of William Bromwell and Beulah Hall With Data Relating to Others of the Bromwell Name in America "As to the Patriarchs of this Brotherhood, the Lodge they opened is closed to them on earth forever. The lights they kindled have long ceased to hum before their altar. The voice of greeting and admonition resounds not in the solitary chambers of the dead; and the swelling notes of their parting hymn hare long ago passed with the extinguished winds which bore them. Where they lie scattered in the little burying grounds a thousand leagues asunder - sleeping on the lonely desert, by the jagged bastions of the mountains, beneath the sighing branches of the trackless wilderness, by the crowded mart, or in the infinite and ever-sobbing sea, we know not, nor will we ever know; but only this, that they filled the places we fill today, joined in the same welcome, more the same badge, wrought in the same Order, bore the same jewels, taught and received the same lessons, and uttered the same farewell on the shore of the far Atlantic, as we today in the presence of the monarch mountains of the West; that one by one they laid down the rod, the jewel and the gavel; one by one surrendered the key, the pen and the scroll; one by one dropped the axe, the fascicle, and the hour-glass, and passed silently from among their brothers to the undiscovered country, and the hidden life."

The Architecture of Birdsall P. Briscoe
Author: Stephen Fox
Publisher: Texas A&M University Press
ISBN: 1648430538
Category : Architecture
Languages : en
Pages : 606
Book Description
Birdsall P. Briscoe (1876–1971) practiced architecture from 1912 to 1956, the span of years during which Houston was transformed from an ambitious town on Buffalo Bayou into an international city, its economy powered by cotton, trade, and oil. The country houses Briscoe designed for three generations of affluent clients, sited in such Houston neighborhoods as Courtlandt Place, Shadyside, Broadacres, and River Oaks, display his exceptional skill in formulating stylistic and social identities for his wealthy clients and their families. In The Architecture of Birdsall P. Briscoe, architectural historian Stephen Fox examines the country houses designed by Briscoe, offering a glimpse into the architect’s methods as well as analyzing how Briscoe constructed a “social architecture” to frame his clientele during periods of economic expansion and contraction. Fox demonstrates how Briscoe cultivated and managed elements of taste, style, and fashion to embody assertions of class identity and solidarity in the context of Houston’s capitalist economy. Additionally, Fox shows how Briscoe and his peers interpreted and reflected early twentieth-century Progressive Era design ideals in giving shape to the vision of local civic leaders. Illustrated throughout with masterful color photography by Paul Hester, this original study of one of Texas’ most distinguished residential architects will enthrall readers with both its detail and its contextual clarity. As he did in his book on the architecture of John F. Staub, Fox delivers a treasure trove of insight into a vital period of Houston’s social history and the architect who helped design it.
