Let's Give this Book Another Look,
By Van. (Salt Lake City, Utah) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Court and Garden: From the French Hotel to the City of Modern Architecture (Graham Foundation Architecture Series) (Hardcover)
I studied under Michael Dennis in graduate school and was strongly influenced by his approach to history. I think we'd benefit from rereading this history of a building type. It provides us with a format for analyzing the evolution of architectural and urban types over time, with proper acknowledgment of parallel developments in politics and economy. I urge students of architecture history and urbanism to look closely at this book and study the implications of Professor Dennis' argument.
