Title: a minor point, but nonetheless...
Review: Before there were modular homes, there were Sears kit homes (which were pre-cut, NOT prefab). And while I was gladdened to see that Sears kit homes got an honorable mention in "The Modular Home", I was disappointed to see an erroneous fact.Sears did NOT sell 100,000 of their kit homes, as is mentioned on page eight, but less than 75,000. And of these 75,000 (or less), many have already been torn down or ruined through insensitive remodeling.All that aside, I do believe that modular homes are the wave of the future. And Sears (and others) started that trend in the early 1900s with their pre-fabricated Simplex Sectionals (very different from their pre-cut homes). These Simplex Sections were sold and shipped in sections, to be bolted together at the job site.Rose Thorntonauthor, The Houses That Sears Built
