Reviews

A thorough overview of the regional development of art deco architecture in the greater Washington, D.C., and Baltimore, Maryland, mertopolitan area... The two cities' economies and cultural histories serve as an interesting background to showcase how the emerging modern architecture movement of the twentieth century could unite both cities, despite their differences... The strengths of Striner, founding president of the Art Deco Society of Washington, and Melissa Blair, a Baltimore art historian, are evident in their comprehensive review and analysis of the entire genre of built works in the Chesapeake and Potomac area. -- Celeste Williams Journal of Architectural Education
