This stimulating book about architecture and the constantly revised physical profile of America traces the changes from log cabins to skyscrapers, from covered bridges to marvels of steel, and shows how each new development is the result of the newly-felt needs and desires of the American people. Designed to persuade urban planners that technology and taste can produce buildings, parks and highways that are things of beauty that will serve man efficiently. Illustrated throughout with line drawings; there is also a black and white picture section. 224 pages with index.
