Architecture critic Peter Blake wrote in 1960 that "during the 1930s, Wright built four structures of a beauty unexcelled in America before or since." One of the four was the Rosenbaum House, the subject of this book. Frank Lloyd Wright (1867-1959) developed the "Usonian" home as low-cost housing for newlyweds (as Stanley and Mildred Rosenbaum were in 1939, when construction began on their house) and others without a lot of money to spend. Far ahead of its time, the versatile design formed the basis for some of Wright's best residences.

Frank Lloyd Wright's Rosenbaum House: The Birth and Rebirth of an American Treasure
Harvey's book is a in-depth look at Benedictine Monastic life in the 3 centuries before the Dissolution of the Monasteries in England. Concentrating on Westminster Abbey, she delves, in great detail, into six particular areas of monastic life: Alms-giving, Diet, Sickness and Infirmary life, Mortality, Monastic Servants, and Corrodies.
Each section is illuminating, and sometimes a surprising analysis, of everyday life. I was unaware, for instance, of the significant departure from Benedict's rules on diet and the trio of possible dining locations within a monastery; the system of Corrodies was new to me (they are comparable to modern Annuites) and interesting; and the servant/monk ratio and how communities around monastic fountations where so dependant on the Abbey was intriguing.
I highly recommend this volume to students of Religious life.
