Less peripatetic than his father, Lloyd Wright built most of his work in southern California, in and around Los Angeles. For the past ten years, internationally recognized architectural photographer Alan Weintraub has been painstakingly documenting Lloyd Wright's buildings, inside and out, in glorious color and fine detail. The result is this book, the first and definitive presentation of Lloyd Wright's complete work. This monograph features nearly six hundred images, almost all of which are published here for the first time. At the book's heart are thirty-one of Wright's finest works, pictured inside and out. An exhaustive reference section includes an illustrated chronology with archival sketches of built and unrealized projects. Wright's stunning drawings appear throughout.
