Reviews

One of the few authentic scholars in the field of Wright studies, Joseph M. Siry has once again made a major contribution to our understanding of the architect's ideas and buildings. Set in the context of Wright's designs for religious architecture, Siry's brilliant, clear, and thoroughly documented monograph is the definitive work on the magisterial Beth Sholom Synagogue. This beautifully written book is indispensable for our grasp of the architect's late work. -Anthony Alofsin, University of Texas
