Summary:

"This book focuses on the particular moment in Wright's career when he was experimenting with houses. Many of these residences are canonized as classic Wright. Other examples included here add a new level or depth to the study of the Prairie house movement. As Wright's work became more popular, he was commissioned to create prototypes of houses that anyone could afford and build. The warm and inviting photographs of these Prairie houses show the many aspects of style's national appeal."--Jacket.
