Frank Lloyd Wright

WRIGHT, Frank Lloyd. An Autobiography. London & New York: Longmans, Green and Co., 1932. Quarto, original decorated black cloth. $2300.

By the time his Autobiography was published, Wright had designed many of the buildings with which he is everlastingly associated, including the Unity Temple (1906), Taliesin (1912), and the Imperial Hotel (1923). In this seminal work he presents an early and insightful exposition of the architectural principles that established him as the most influential American architect of the twentieth century. Without original dust jacket.

Expert restoration to spine. An extremely good copy.
