Of the 300 Frank Lloyd Wright houses that were built, award-winning author Diane Maddex has selected 50 that have become worldwide favorites. With insightful text and splendid photographs, Maddex shows how these houses—which include Wright's Oak Park home, the Coonley, Dana and Robie houses from the Prairie period, Fallingwater and Taliesin West—each grew from Wright's fundamental belief that a house should be built in harmony with nature, use natural materials and colors, be designed from within, have the consistency of a finely woven fabric, achieve harmony through unity and be not merely a domicile but a work of art. Hardcover, 128 pages, color photographs throughout.
