Jean Paul Midant's book carefully tracks Viollet Le Duc's prolific career. Within his chapters, Midant includes excerpts from Viollet Le Ducs own writings. The reason to purchase this volume is for its stunning illustrations. Viollet Le Duc is one of the world's great architectural draftsmen. In my opinion, for technical drawing skill, he is right up there with Frank Lloyd Wright. This volume is filled with beautiful line drawings and water colors. This reasonably priced book is a must for all lovers of French Gothic Revival Architecture." ; 12.8 X 9.1 X 0.6 inches; 176 pages .

About Dr. Bookman - All Books Tightly Packaged in Cardboard
We have an eclectic array of used and out of print books for you in our inventory. Service is key to our relationship with you. You get \"Old School\" service with Dr. Bookman. We can\'t look at each other in the eye, shake each others hand, or walk into the shop the next day if we\'re disatisfied. I understand that vulnerability. You are purchasing a product sight unseen. That means I must be honest with you about exactly what you are buying. You might find my descriptions more detailed than most others, but when purchasing online, I want you to know exactly what you\'re buying. I don\'t want you to feel surprised when you open the box. And by the way, almost all of our books are shipped in cardboard packaging designed just for books. That means you get it the way it left here.
