Editorial Reviews

Review

"A rare treat indeed... In this book there is much to celebrate, much to lament and an infinite amount to learn." -- Milton Wilfred Grenfell, Traditional Building/Period Homes



"The real seduction is in the images." -- Zachary M. Schrag, H-DC



"The completed cataloging of some forty thousand drawings, prints, and photographs depicting the greater Washington area is cause for celebration, and Johns Hopkins University Press has produced a fitting volume to mark the occasion. Lavishly illustrated and carefully documented... represents much more than a guide book." -- Howard Gillette Jr., Journal of the Society of Architectural Historians



Review

"A significant and important addition to the publications on Washington architecture. This guide will be invaluable to architects and researchers. Very impressive." -- Alison K. Hoagland, Michigan Technological University
