Frontier homes

In a survey of early American abodes, our journey begins in the New England with the post and beam timber frame, continues to the Southeast with the "log house", onto the "sod house" of the Great Plains, and finally ends in the Southwest with the "adobe home". The beauty of the land, authentic reconstruction of the houses, and the lifestyles of the pioneers are woven together with expert commentary, allowing the viewer to connect with early settlers and hear the stories of what makes a house a home.
