Reed, Roger

Building Victorian Boston: The Architecture of Gridley J.F. Bryant

Amherst & Boston, University of Massachusetts Press, 2007. Hardcover. green boards w/ gilt spine printing. 224 pgs w/ bw illustrations. light peach dustjacket w/ bw illustration; plastic cover. Pages inspected and appear clean, but, may have instances of marginalia, notations, etc. Due date slip on back endpaper has no removal stamps. Remains a nice, bright copy. "In Building Victorian Boston, Roger Reed focuses on representative projects by Bryant, presenting them in a chronological narrative that both illuminates the trajectory of his career and creates a portrait of the profession of architecture during a defining period of New England history. Bryant designed more major buildings in Boston from 1840 to 1880 than any other architect. He also undertook commissions throughout New England, especially in towns linked to Boston by newly constructed railroad lines. In many ways, his practice presaged aspects of modern architectural firms.For this volume, Reed has tracked down hundreds of Bryant's drawings as well as specifications, letters, newspaper articles, published renderings, and historical photographs. These materials are amply represented in this book, the definitive study of a quintessential Victorian architect."--WorldCat. Good+ (ex-college library w/ stamps to textblock edges, IDs to title pgs, other associated markings. dust-jacket taped to board edges; sunning to spine & edges.) .

Reed, Henry Hope and Anne Day

The United States Capitol: Its Architecture and Decoration

New York, Norton & Company, 2005. Hardcover. Black cloth boards with gilt lettering on spine, color illustrated dust jacket, decorative end pages, xiii, 210 pages, profusely illustrated in bw and color. "The United States Capitol is regarded by many as the finest example of classical architecture in America. Here, in a illustrated volume, Henry Hope Reed traces the architectural antecedents and history of this symbol of American democracy. The Capitol, which houses the legislative branch of our government, is also an international landmark attracting up to five million visitors each year. Its design was the result of an architectural competition devised by George Washington, who declared the William Thornton's winning plan a perfect balance of "grandeur, simplicity, and convenience."" "Construction began in August 1793, but progress made during the following decade was less than satisfactory. English architect Benjamin Henry Latrobe was brought in by Thomas Jefferson in 1803 to oversee the work, which was finally completed under Charles Bulfinch in 1829. Following the story of the Capitol building all the way to its most recent renovation and the addition of a Visitor's Center, distinguished architectural historian Henry Hope Reed provides a detailed description of the building's exterior, its unsurpassed ornamentation, and the richness of its rooms." "Illustrated with 192 color and 123 black-and-white photographs, drawings, and diagrams, some depicting areas of the Capitol now closed to the public, The U.S. Capitol: Its Architecture and Decoration also serves as an invaluable visual reference tool. Complete with an illustrated glossary of architectural terms used and a section of brief biographies of persons associated with the Capitol, this book is a comprehensive history of one of America's most precious landmarks." -- BOOK JACKET.
