Miles Minor Kellogg and the Encinitas Boathouses
Built in 1929, the Boathouses of Encinitas have captured the attention of locals and tourists alike for decades. Their architect, Miles Minor Kellogg, shared the creative flair and religious fervor of his distant cousin Dr. John Harvey Kellogg and had a passion for invention, music and poetry. A talented carpenter, Miles built his first house at seventeen and worked his way cross-country until settling with his family in the growing town of Encinitas. His construction company, Kellogg and Son, helped transform the landscape, and the unique bungalows were the culmination of his dream to build a boat. Join author Rachel Brupbacher as she traces the steps of her ancestor and one of San Diego County's most innovative architects.

Boathouses
"This selection of Boathouses from across the world compares examples of the building type and illustrates a wide range from primitive boat shelters to new multi-million dollar architect-designed university rowing club boathouses in the United States and United Kingdom." "The core of the book describes, illustrates and maps Thames-side boathouses built from Victorian times to the 21st century and shows international influences on architectural style and decoration and the differing design criteria for domestic, club and commercial use. Also included for comparison are examples from throughout the United Kingdom of boathouses on inland lakes and country estates, showing varying degrees of sophistication from rustic to classical." "This is a valuable source book and a must for anyone interested in the design and construction of waterside storage and living space for club, commercial, domestic or leisure use. The wide range of materials, cladding, roofing, finished and colours illustrated will be useful reference for historical and conservation purposes." --Book Jacket.
Boathouses
The allure of the boathouse defies definition. To some they're a place to loaf about with friends on a summer's afternoon, to others they're secret bolt holes. Though disparate in form and appearance these structures built for the protection, construction, and maintenance of boats are united by the natural beauty of their waterfront locations and the innovation required for their construction. In this superbly illustrated book, Adam Mornement describes the history and evolution of some 40 boathouses from around the world, from the mid-18th century to the 21st. Some are the work of famous architects, including Robert Adam, Frank Lloyd Wright, Renzo Piano, and Shigeru Ban, but most are anonymous. Each in its own way embodies the adventure, charm, and romance of this visually arresting and consistently surprising building.
