G-(Bottom edge of binding has some paint; edges of book block have foxing; page surfaces are clean; inside front cover has mark from former bookplate. ) Light brown cloth boards, teal dj with bw pictorial, [xiv] 297 pp, 160 bw images. "The name of Bertram Grosvenor Goodhue (1869-1924) stands for a number of widely different accomplishments....Severely criticized by some for his opposition to the conventions of the Beaux Arts, Goodhue was lambasted by others at the end of his career for not fully embracing the tenets of the new European modernism. Now, almost sixty years after his death, it is precisely his independence that makes Goodhue and his buildings fascinating to us....In a period in which an inventive traditionalism is once again seriously valued, Goodhue's work stands as an exemplar and a source for contemporary architecture." (dj).
