There has been some criticism of the previous books in the series for recycling material found in the very first Houses book. This current book, however, is filled with new and great material, photos and essays by Alan Hess (Frank Lloyd Wright: Buildings for the City), David G. De Long (Reshaping Urban Landscape) and Kathryn Smith (Frank Lloyd Wright: Selected Plans) that make it a worthwhile addition to any personal library. I'm definitely going to enjoy curling up with this one and soaking up all the amazing architecture featured inside.
