This review is from: Frank Lloyd Wright & the Prairie School in Wisconsin: An Architectural Touring Guide (Paperback)

Frank Lloyd Wright And The Prairie School In Wisconsin: An Architectural Touring Guide includes descriptions of forty-seven Wright-designed buildings, as well as thirty-six buildings of other Prairie School architects. Kristin Visser's guidebook will enable visitors to tour more than two dozen buildings, stay in Prairie School bed and breakfast inns, and even rent a Wright-designed cottage. Frank Lloyd Wright And The Prairie School In Wisconsin offers a history of each building, noting special features to observe. There is a brief biography of Frank Lloyd Wright and the other architects whose work is represented, as well as a brief history of the Prairie school. Frank Lloyd Wright And The Prairie School In Wisconsin is enhanced with more than one hundred photographs and practical travel information. James Dennis (professor of art history at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and the owner of a Wright-designed home) provides an informative introduction. Frank Lloyd Wright And The Prairie School In Wisconsin is "must" reading for architectural students and Frank Lloyd Wright enthusiasts.
