“Throughout his long career, Frank Lloyd Wright used glass in his buildings in a variety of surprising and innovative ways.  From the art glass of the early Prairie Houses to the dome of the Guggenheim Museum in New York, Wright’s designs in glass are an extraordinary contribution to the medium.

“This book, illustrated in color throughout, . . . includes a chronological survey of Wright’s work in glass, with detailed pictorial accounts of his use of it in buildings from his own house and studio at Oak Park in 1889 to the Marin County Civic Center, California of 1957.  The final chapter concentrates on Wright’s use of glass in his furniture and furnishings.”
