In 1911 he designed Taliesin to use as his personal residence, architectural studio, and working farm. A century later Randolph C. Henning has assembled a splendid collection of rare vintage postcards, some never before published, that provides a revealing and visually unique journey through Wright s work at Taliesin. Included are intimate images of Taliesin at various stages and views of the building just after the tragic 1914 fire. The postcards also depict nearby buildings designed by Wright, including the Romeo and Juliet windmill and two buildings for the Hillside Home School. Henning provides useful explanations that highlight relevant details and accompany each image. \u003ci\u003eFrank Lloyd Wright s Taliesin\u003c\/i\u003e documents and celebrates Wright s 100-year-old masterpiece. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFinalist, Midwest Book Awards for Cover Design and for Regional Interest Illustrated Book \u003cbr\u003eBest Books for General Audiences, selected by the American Association of School Librarians \u003cbr\u003eBest Books for General Audiences, selected by the Public Library Reviewers\"\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnn Peters is associate professor of English at Stern College, Yeshiva University, and the recipient of the 2012 McGinnis Ritchie Award for Nonfiction.
