Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

This comprehensive and insightful illustrated survey of 500 of America's most distinguished buildings provides a unique overview of the thousand-year architectural development of the United States. It examines our nation's architecture from its earliest days to the present, ranging from cliff dwellings in Mesa Verde to Frank Lloyd Wright's Robie House in Chicago to James Ingo Freed's Holocaust Museum in Washington. Indispensable in any library, it also serves as a general introduction to American architecture or as a splendid guide for tourists.

Review:

"The Source Book is full of information-everything from celebrating unsung buildings ...to worthwhile advice on how to see things.... Source Book combines beautiful prose and stunning photographs." -Washington Times
