ABC of Architecture is an accessible, nontechnical introduction to architectural structure, history, and criticism.
O\'Gorman is Grace Slack Mc Neil Professor of the History of American Art at Wellesley College and author of more than a dozen books on Architecture and art history, including Connecticut Valley Vernacular: The Vanishing Landscape and Architecture of the New England Tobacco Fields, also available from the University of Pennsylvania Press..
About the Author: James F.
He shows the nonspecialist how to read a design in plans, sections, and elevations, and how architects, like other artists, make creative use of space and light.
O\'Gormon moves seamlessly from a discussion of the most basic inspiration for Architecture (the need for shelter from the elements), to an exploration of space, system, and material, and, finally, to an examination of the language and history of architecture.
