On the Edge of the World: Four Architects in San Francisco at the Turn of the Century
Editorial Reviews
Aaron Betsky, Progressive Architecture
"Ambitious [and] successful, precisely because it does not idealize the architects. They instead are placed . . . in the geographic, urban, and intellectual climate in which they worked."
David Gebhard, Journal of the Society of Architectural Historians
"Through this look into the early lives and careers of these architects we come away with a more perceptive understanding of the practice of architecture in America at the turn of the century."
