The book is detailed and covers a great deal of Hartford's rich heritage, which includes buildings by H.H. Richardson, I.M. Pei, Venturi Scott-Brown, and other luminaries. If you're interested in Hartford's parks, they are all featured in the guide as well, as are the Modernist complexes that made Hartford a laboratory of urban planning in the 1950s. Over thirty years later Hartford is a smaller city facing many challenges, but it is still a rich architectural storehouse. This guide is still your best way to understand Hartford's wealth of architecture, landscape, and urban design. ( on line review)
