Book Description:
|
Marble Halls is written for the intelligent layperson, rather than for the specialist in the history of architecture, who is interested in the architecture and interiors of America's Gilded Age as an expression of that era's quest for cultural equality with European nations, even as it paralleled the rise of the architectural style of Modernism.
