Greene & Greene

Summary: Could have been the definitive history, Although??
Review: Above normal production with some very nice touches. Very well written and complete text, although there is a painful flaw to this publication. The floor plans and a vast number of the desriptive pictures are improperly sized for viewing. Greene & Greene's art-like floor plan drawings have been reduced to something impossible to read and interpret. Considering the price of this volumn, this is an inexcusable flaw. As a coffee table publication this might be acceptable but for the money its a shame the publisher did not catch this oversight.

Summary: best on greene and greene
Review: I grew up in Pasadena and have been waiting for a book like this on the greene and Greene brothers. This book makes all the other previous books look naive, fawning, and lame.This book treats the subject, that is, the architecture, properly.
