A study of the architects of the United States, with particular reference to certain characteristic tendencies in American architecture
A 1920 architecture thesis by Donald Mahaney Allison, submitted at the University of Illinois, surveying American architects and building styles for academic readers. Its plates are mounted sepia photographs and photographic reproductions of etchings and elevation drawings, pasted over typed pages, showing state capitols, libraries, city halls, and domed villa designs with measured scale bars; useful for period photographic tone, classical facade details, and the layered look of image tipped onto text.
