Reviews

"Perhaps no one has done more to make sense of Frank Lloyd Wright for audiences of art and architectural historians, as well as countless others interested in American and modern design, than Professor Anthony Alofsin. His manifold publications on Wright, indeed on almost every facet of [his] professional career, constitute collectively the greatest resource on which we can draw for a portrait of the architect and his work." Steven Mansbach Professor of the History of Twentieth-century Art, University of Maryland, and author of Modern Art in Eastern Europe: From the Baltic to the Balkans ca. 1890 to 1939
