Frank Lloyd Wright wasn't just an architect. He was a prophet, a poseur;
a beloved teacher, a failed businessman. During his long, eventful life
he experienced both incredible misfortune and great success.
This Is Frank Lloyd Wright
brings his projects and persona into vivid focus. Wit and visual punch
have been the hallmarks of the This Is series to date; the first
architectural title in the series will give readers an up-close look at
Wright's progress from difficult childhood, to struggling
apprenticeship, to early success, through mid-life setbacks and on to
late-life comeback.
Beautiful specially commissioned
illustrations documenting the important events in his life sit alongside
photographs of Wright's most iconic buildings (including Fallingwater
and New York's Guggenheim Museum).
