Nearly one third of Wright's architectural work was completed in these years. Included among the works reproduced here are the books 'The Natural House', Wright's answer to the question of integrity in architecture and affordable shelter for the families of a democracy; 'A Testament', the final summation of his philosophy and life's work for an organic architecture; and 'The Living City', his revised and expanded vision for enlightened urban planning. The texts are reproduced in their entirety, accompanied by photographs and drawings, many never before published." Quantity Available: 1. Shipped Weight: 4 lbs 7 oz.
