About the Author:
Ada Louise Huxtable was architecture critic at the New York Times from 1963 to 1982. Among the books she has written are Classical New York and Pier Luigi Nervi.
Review:
"A fine survey of skyscraper history [and] a timely call for some hard thinking about the kind of monuments our civilization will leave behind. . . . Huxtable's scrappy spirit is in top form." -- Newsday
