Summary:

"This story should hold considerable appeal for those interested in the Quaker community of Philadelphia as well as al those attracted to Victorian architecture. Hutton's career may be said to bracket the emergence of architecture as a profession in the United States, for when he began there was no recognized architectural profession. By the time he retired, regular programs in architectural training were offered at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, the University of Illinois, Cornell, Syracuse, Michigan, Columbia, and the University of Pennsylvania, at which last he often lectured."-- Book jacket flap.
