The Story

The famous American architect's fascinating look at the early years of his pioneering work, which led to his being called the "father of the skyscraper."

Includes a wealth of projects and evaluations, as well as 34 full-page plates.
Reprint of the American Institute of Architects, New York, 1924 edition.
