Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Exquisite, rare photographs and timely, illuminating commentary reveal a rich architectural history waiting to be rediscovered as travel to Cuba burgeons among Canadian, European, and Latin American tourists and gradually becomes more accessible to visitors from the United States as well. The lucid, intelligent text and superb photographs shot exclusively for this book present the architectural treasures of the entire island, from the first India boh'os, early colonial structures, and Mudjar craftsmanship to baroque churches, classically inspired civic buildings, ambitious modernist designs, and present-day preservation work. Now in practical paperback edition, this unique reference source will be valued by architects, preservationists, historians, students, and armchair and actual travelers. --This text refers to the Paperback edition.

Andrea Brizzi, who has photographed in more than fifty countries, is based in New York. --This text refers to the Paperback edition.
