About this Item

Large oblong octavo in green and blue half-cloth boards; green/blue/ yellow pictorial DJ; xii, 210 pages: illustrations (200 photographs, 20 in color); 25 x 27 cm. "The architecture in Florida is amazingly varied and eternally fascinating -- buildings bizarre and buildings beautiful are as much a part of the state's appeal as the sun, the sea and the citrus. The indulgence of fantasy and the stretch of imagination, the accomodation of nature and the stubborn denial of it, humble dreams and hubris are all embodied in the buildings of the Sunshine State. Now, in this visually stunning book, Hap Hatton gives us a comprehensive, wonderfully informative and anecdotal history of Florida as seen in its unique and remarkable architecture." --Jacket copy. Fine copy with clean pages and tight binding with small dent on top edge of board; in near fine jacket with slight sunning to spine.
