Description

Leading historian Dell Upton’s American Architecture: A Thematic History reveals the dazzling richness of America’s human landscape. The text covers indigenous, folk, ethnic, and popular architectures like Chaco Canyon, the Brooklyn Bridge, and Native American houses while also exploring the great monuments of traditional histories like Jefferson’s Monticello and Wright’s Fallingwater. To make this text more useful for students, Upton outlines the modes of architectural knowledge–books, drawings, and models–that builders and scholars use to understand the built environment.
