Who Built That?: Skyscrapers: An Introduction to Skyscrapers and Their Architects

84 pp. | Princeton Architectural Press | September, 2014 | Trade ISBN 978-1-61689-270-8 $16.95
(4) 4-6 In these stylish, cleanly designed volumes, young readers are introduced to the influential architects--including Le Corbusier, Gustave Eiffel, and Frank Gehry--behind some of the most well-known structures in the world. Small-scale line drawings with limited coloring follow the text closely, but details are often too finely rendered to be of much use in clarifying technical architectural concepts. Review covers these titles: Who Built That?: Modern Houses and Who Built That?: Skyscrapers.
