'The Architecture of the United States', G. E. Kidder Smith's 1981 three-volume masterwork, was hailed as the most comprehensive and insightful overview of the architectural heritage of this country. Princeton Architectural Press is proud to introduce an updated version of this extraordinary resource - long out of print - in a single volume, 'Source Book of American Architecture: 500 Notable Buildings from the 10th Century to the Present'. No similar encyclopedia of American architecture exists. Smith examines our nation's architecture, from the cliff dwellings in Mesa Verde to the Holocaust Museum in Washington. This critical, chronological survey of America's most distinguished buildings provides a unique overview of the thousandyear architectural development of the United States. Indispensable in the library, 'Source Book of American Architecture' also serves as a splendid guide for the tourist.
