Architecture, in many ways, defines a location. It shapes how it is perceived, how it is utilized, and the role it plays in civilization and society. This book presents a chronological look at some of the most influential and important architects in American history, from Thomas Jefferson to I.M. Pei and many in between. Their careers, influences, stylistic elements and major buildings are among the many subjects discussed.
