Researching the history of indoor plumbing in the American home was startling because I hadn't realized how relatively recent this convenience is for most homes, plus the surprising number of homes that still don't have running water. As with most of our other modern utilities, the idea of indoor plumbing started small and finally became modern in the early 20th century with the invention of the modern bathroom. This article ran as the third installment of the series I've written for A Simple Life we call the "History of Our Homes."
