Unity Temple: Design Insight

An insightful account of the circumstances, events and issues surrounding the architectural presentation,design and structure execution of the famed Unity Temple. The forward provides the greatest insight, although it is an opinion, regarding the design approach and rationale...it is in my view one of the best explanations of a Frank Lloyd Wright building. One will probably find author's story tedious but you have to bear with it to obtain a complete picture...but again it is tedious. Overall, the book is well worth the cost and time to read.
