Dennis J. Casey
Publisher: Prairie Designs of California
Volume 1 in 1994 and Volume 2 in 1995

These two books contain drawings of windows designed by Frank Lloyd Wright.
Wright’s use of art glass lasted over 30 years, and he last used it in the Ennis house in 1923. The early glass designs by Wright were based on plants in nature, later they appeared to be totally abstract.

Volume 2 features Robie House, Martin House, Frank Lloyd Wright Residence, Little House (Peoria), Emil Bach House, Heurtly House, Evans House, Little House (Northome), Lake Geneva Inn, Bradley House, De Rhodes House, Coonley Residence, and Dana House.
