The book presents large color photos of 39 of his buildings. The dust jacket is a beautiful color photo of the interior of a home on the front and a color photo of Wright doing an architectural drawing at a drafting table with 3 gentlemen looking on. 22 full page color photos with about 4 of them going on to about a third of the facing page. There's about 9 photos of furniture or glass and a handful of photos of specific items in homes such as steps, bookshelves, patterns in walls and edges of buildings. The Introduction has about 11 pages that are equal parts photos and text. The rest of the book is dominated by big beautiful photos. There are 12 b & w photos all in the Introduction. This book uses its size well and does give you a real opportunity to examine details of his work such as his furniture and various patterns and designs he created for specific parts of his different buildings. A fine book to own when you are looking for a large sized FLW color photo book, particularly if you can get it at some kind of a discounted price. A job well done, no question.
