About this book

American Architecture: A Thematic History by Upton, Dell. Paperback edition. ISBN: 9780190245283.

Leading historian Dell Uptons American Architecture: A Thematic History reveals the dazzling richness of Americas human landscape. The text covers indigenous, folk, ethnic, and popular architectures like Chaco Canyon, the Brooklyn Bridge, and Native American houses while also exploring the great monuments of traditional histories like Jeffersons Monticello and Wrights Fallingwater. To make this text more useful for students, Upton outlines the modes of architectural knowledge--books, drawings, and models--that builders and scholars use to understand the built environment.
