About This Item
Los Angeles, California: Hennessey & Ingalls, Inc., 1978. Brand New in a Brand New dust jacket. Perfect condition (just removed from the publisher's shrinkwrap so we could write this description). NO rubbing. NO fading. Bright, clean, square and tight. Sharp corners. NOT a library discard. NO owner's name or bookplate. NOT a remainder. Fresh and crisp -- obviously never read. 1978. First Edition. This comprehensive bibliography describes 2,095 entries by and about Frank Lloyd Wright. Most entries are annotated. From the foreword: "The bibliography contains no fewer than 2,095 entries, spanning almost a century: from the first entry - 1886 - concerning the nineteen-year-old Wright's part in the construction of a country church to the last entry - 1977 - dealing with the Historic American Buildings Survey records for the Johnson Wax building in Racine. Between these two entries lies the fabulous story of Wright's early emergence, incredible creativity, tenacity and articulateness, his successes, set-backs, fights, his temporary eclipse and eventual triumph, his death and his continuing enormous posthumous influence." Illustrated with 12 plates on glossy paper. Foreword by Adolf K. Placzek. Appendix A: Taliesin Publications. Appendix B: Frank Lloyd Wright Buildings. Name and Title Index. Building and Place Index. Bound in the original tan cloth, stamped in brown. Complete with a pristine dust jacket.. First Edition. Hardcover. New/New. Illus. by NOT a library discard. 8vo. xliv, 303pp. + 12 plates.
