Learning from Savannah (Paperback)

Paperback. Learning from Savannah bridges the mostly separate worlds of the history of Savannahs famed urban plan and the history of the citys architecture. The authors analyze the history of the urban plan, how it functions, and how it has shaped the citys buildings in distinctive ways. Distilling over two decades of original research on the history of Savannahs built environment, as well as the daily experience of it, Gobel and Williams uncover the complex and illusive qualities that have enthralled visitors since the nineteenth century and architects and planners since the mid-twentieth. The book includes many previously unpublished historic maps and images, as well as numerous original analytical diagrams that interpret the city in fresh ways.
