In depth analysis of Wright’s latest book. Discusses "Organic Architecture", "Domestic Architecture", and "Organic Architecture and the International Style".

(In fact it must be said of him that throughout his long career he has never mixed in the schemes nor compromised with the tastes of his wealthy clients. It is mysterious in these circumstances how he has managed to get along - except that God takes care of his saints.)" Includes 14 photographs and five illustrations. Original cover price 50c.
