| 520 | _a"95% Perfect: The Older Residences at Nantucket" by Everett Uberto Crosby is a detailed analysis and examination of the architectural heritage of Nantucket, written in the late 1930s. This non-fiction publication focuses on the unique style of older houses on the island, emphasizing their historical significance and the effort needed to preserve their integrity. The book serves as both a tribute to Nantucket's architectural legacy and a guide for preserving its historical residences. Crosby's analysis identifies various architectural styles from three main periods, showcasing distinctive features common to Nantucket's older houses. He provides a census that catalogs architectural characteristics such as foundation types, window designs, and roof styles, drawing connections to the island's cultural influences, including Quaker simplicity and the impact of prosperity from the whaling industry. Through a combination of illustrations, photographs, and descriptions, the book argues for the importance of maintaining the authenticity of these homes to promote continued appreciation of Nantucket's unique architectural landscape.
