Summary:

In the last decade Latin America has been the scene of one of the greatest building booms in history. The Museum of Modem Art, under its International Exhibitions Program, sent Henry-Russell Hitchcock, America's leading historian of modern architecture, to survey this remarkable achievement and to report on the most significant buildings he found there. This volume, the result of that trip, presents forty-six buildings by a score of architects in ten countries and Puerto Rico. -- from book jacket.
