Arts and Crafts (Architecture and Design Library) - Kitty Turgeon - Hardcover Book

Philadelphia is a terribly under-rated city. This little book provides a great snapshot of some of the most interesting architectural jewels found throughout the area. It is by no means the most extensive collection of buildings nor the most comprehensive. It does, however, provide a terrific overview and interesting tidbits of some of the city's great edifices. I like the way the book is organized chronologically and even gives a brief bio of some of the most influential Philadelphia architects. I hope in the next edition they will include more neighborhoods to their tours. How can you not have a walking tour that includes Rittenhouse?
