Rese�a del editor:

This oversize volume (12.5x15.25<">) affords large-format reproductions of 125 b&w images of early buildings designed by Louis Sullivan. The photographs were made with care by Sullivan's photographers in close collaboration with him, using large view cameras, hand-ground lenses, and special films. For more than 40 years, Crombie (1914-1999) championed the photographs as the primary means for understanding Sullivan's work. In a collaborative effort, he and Plank (U. of Virginia) prepared an exhibit in 1991; and then, although Crombie felt that the photographs speak more than words could ever convey, Plank undertook investigation of the photographers and the provenance of the photographs, as well as preparation of interpretive text. The fruit of their collaboration, this lavish volume of photos and text is a major contribution to architectural studies. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
