5.0 out of 5 stars
Simple but Effective,
By M. Johnson (Harrold, SD) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Monograph of the Work of McKim, Mead & White 1879-1915 (Paperback)
Buy this book! This (except a new, inferior Dover book) is the only way to find actual plans and elevations of perhaps the greatest architectural firm in American history. Yes, there are two coffee table books on White's work, but pretty pictures do not convey the majesty of the working drawings: if you have ever considered that "mere" orthographic projection is somehow less than an art in its own right, these drawings, even in reproduction, will disabuse you. Yes, CAD is now an indispensible part of architectural practice, but what a virtue White made out of the necessity of hand drafting!

Not quite the resource book I was looking for. Monographs are blah and a lot the same.
