Title: Skyscraper Rivals by Daniel M. Abramson, Carol Willis ISBN: 1-56898-244-5 Publisher: Princeton Architectural Press Pub. Date: 01 December, 2000 Format: Hardcover Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $50.00 |
Average Customer Rating: 5 (2 reviews)
Rating: 5
Summary: Production values (pictorially/editorially) are fantastic.
Comment: Coincidentally, I also am in Somerville, MA. I happened upon this only because it was displayed prominently in a local Cambridge institution in Harvard Square on top of a stack of new architecture and art books that I passed by just browsing. I probably buy more computer-related books (not many at all) than architecture these days, but after looking through this I easily decided to buy it then and there. Two buildings I never previously knew existed, but are richly and lovingly documented (right down to the oddball uniforms the staff had to wear during that period in time). Equal parts historical reference and architectural anthology of the two structures. It currently occupies the top shelf of my living room bookcase.
Rating: 5
Summary: A Great Book on Skyscrapers
Comment: Daniel Abramson is a first-class writer who beautifully handles a large and interesting subject. Hundreds of photos make the book highly accessible. The text perfectly complements the photographs. Outstanding.
