Book Description

September 15, 2007
Among the many books available on Frank Lloyd Wright, William Allin Storrer’s classic The Architecture of Frank Lloyd Wright: A Complete Catalog is the authoritative guide to all of Wright’s built work.

This updated third edition revisits each of Wright’s existent structures, tracing the architect’s development from his Prairie works, such as the Frederick Robie house in Chicago, to the last building constructed to his specifications, the magnificent Aime and Norman Lykes residence in California. Renowned expert William Storrer deftly incorporates a series of key revisions and brings each structure’s history up to the present day, as some buildings have been refurbished, some moved, and others sadly abandoned or destroyed by natural disasters like Hurricane Katrina—including the James Charnley bungalow in Ocean Springs, Mississippi. 

Organized chronologically, this updated third edition features full-color photographs of all extant work along with a description of each building and its history. Storrer also provides full addresses, GPS coordinates, and maps of locations throughout the United States, England, and Japan, indicating the shortest route to each building—perfect for Wright aficionados on the go.
From Fallingwater to the Guggenheim, Frank Lloyd Wright is the undisputed master of American architecture. Now fully revised, The Architecture of Frank Lloyd Wright: A Complete Catalog will be indispensable for anyone fascinated with the architect’s unique genius.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"William Allin Storrer, a scholar who has written on Wright for a quarter-century, has produced the first true and complete catalogue raisonne of Wright's work, and it is stunning....He has taken the vast forest of Wright's built work and looked at it tree by tree, labeling each and every one of those trees thoroughly and intriguingly. It is a testament to Mr. Storrer's skill that this book comes off not merely as a catalogue, but as an inspiring study of the whole Wright forest." - Paul Goldberger, New York Times Book Review"

This review is from: The Architecture of Frank Lloyd Wright: A Complete Catalog, Updated 3rd Edition (Paperback)
This book is absolutely amazing. I take it with me whenever I travel to see any of Frank Lloyd Wright's homes and buildings. It lists addresses for the homes and has great color photos to help locate the homes. I don't leave home without it!

4.0 out of 5 stars Comprehensive Catalog, December 2, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Architecture of Frank Lloyd Wright: A Complete Catalog, Updated 3rd Edition (Paperback)
The complete catalog is a useful book that is great to take along on a road trip and find a Frank Lloyd Wright house. The book includes black and white photos of the exterior of the every listed building as well as a few interior photos. The catalog has good readability with about a two paragraph description of each building. There is no list in the beginning with each building, but rather they are listed in the back according to state with a map included. A nice sized and affordable catalog.
