Product Description
Review
The Works may have the most impact on preservationists and other investigators for whom multicausal explanations of architectural change still represent a relatively innovative approach. (ISIS )
Questions of why bigger has perpetually meant better in American production and consumption, of why we chose the economies of large-scale capitalism and wage labour over the intimacies of community and workshop, can only be answered by looking closely at the physical settings of industry. This is a task for which The Works equips us. (ISIS )
An excellent ground breaking study of American Industrial Architecture. (American Studies Today )
