4.0 out of 5 stars A non-professional view, March 14, 2003

I just have a love of architecture, for the art of it. This is a beautiful book. The photographs are breathtaking. The writing actually interested me in the history of an area I had never even thought about before.I would have liked to have seen some of the more humble ,common buildings though.
