Frank Lloyd Wright: America's Architect

This is a charming little book with great photos. A MUST for all fans of Frank Lloyd Wright's work.

The cutest comprehensive Wright book you could want

This mini-book for the gnome's coffee table contains superb color photos, plus occasional color artist's renderings, of Wright's exteriors, interiors, and accessories from all periods of his life; it even includes items from his art collection. Informative mini-essays in each of 7 chapters plus Introduction precede the pix; includes glossary and index. Lotsa pages in this "Big Little Book" format -- a sleeper!
