FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT: A Retrospective View. HB

Over 110 full-color illustrations. It is a measure of the significance of Frank Lloyd Wright that, little more than forty years after his death, there is already a considerable library of books—as well as pamphlets and articles devoted to him—that he is the subject of worldwide lecture courses, and that his name is frequently mentioned in the press. This volume is a tribute to the man who remains as controversial and widely-discussed as he was in his own lifetime. Here is a survey of his finest buildings, complete with floor plans, architectural renderings, and full-color photographs of interiors, exteriors, and architectural details. This volume features some of the many innovative structures from his work. Along with a history of an architectural career spanning seven decades, here is the story of a man whose life encompassed great success, devastating tragedy, and remarkable changes of fortune.
