Description: Ferro Concrete Style by Francis S. Onderdonk Hennessey & Ingalls; 1998. (originally published 1928). Cloth hardcover dust jacket light sunning to spine edges else very good + tight clean ; loaded with illustrations and photos ; 265 pages with bibliography From the baroque excesses of Los Angeles's Mayan theater to the starkly expressionist churches of '20s Europe, this book traces the history of reinforced concrete from its roots through its glory days in the first three decades of this century. Long out of print and hard to find, Onderdonk's masterful survey has been faithfully reproduced to include the three color plates and over 300 black and white illustrations. Its author's approach is exactly summed up by a quotation from Frank Lloyd Wright (a particular hero of his) : "Each material has its own message and, to the creative artist, its own song"
