Book Description

April 4, 1979

The most influential, provocative, and enduring writings of the American master are gathered in this anthology.

Twenty-one carefully chosen selections from Wright’s extensive literary output span the important period between 1900 and the late 1930s, when the architect exerted a powerful influence on the developing modern movement. A concise biography, explanatory head notes, and a short annotated bibliography make this an ideal introduction for students. 25 illustrations
