Another Look at William Strickland [M.A. Thesis in Art History] by McNabb, William Ross - 1971

Nashville, 1971. Very Good. Thesis (M.A. in Art History) -- Vanderbilt University, 1971. [1], vi, 71 typescript leaves: 21 tipped-in photographs; 29 cm. Orange binder with bookplate of Nancy Halverson Schless on the front cover. First (blank) leaf is inscribed "Gift of the author." Nancy Halverson Schless (1928-2002) was an architectural historian. The author, William Ross McNabb, published a number of works about historic architecture in Knoxville, Tennessee. By studying a collection of drawings by American architect William Strickland (1787-1854), which are held by the Tennessee State Library, McNabb was able to focus on Strickland's residential designs as well as to speculate about several other designs for large public buildings. In Very Good Condition: corners of binder are rubbed; binder clamp is rusting; pages and illustrations are clean and solid.
