Houses that Sugar Built: An Intimate Portrait of Philippine Ancestral Homes
The great houses that Philippine sugar money built, photographed before any more of them disappear.
Gina Consing McAdam and photographer Siobhan Doran document the ancestral homes of the Philippine sugar families: the architecture, the furnishings, the craft traditions, and the families still living among them. These are art traditions a reader is unlikely to encounter anywhere else, and the photography is the point of the book.

Gina Consing McAdam and Siobhan Doran, Houses that Sugar Built: An Intimate Portrait of Philippine Ancestral Homes. An excellent picture book, these are art traditions, and bits of history, you otherwise never would see.
