- Summary
- This book presents a full history of Boston's architecture, from Charles Bulfinch to Walter Gropius. It also deals at some length with Victorian suburbs as well as with the city proper; and treats seriously not only late nineteenth-century design but also Boston's early Modernist architecture and its twentieth-century Classical, Gothic, Colonial, and Art Deco buildings.
