Shaker: Life, Work and Art is a beautiful book. I first saw acopy several years ago and was disappointed to learn that thehardcover version was out of print. The book has short narrative sections that provide insight into Shaker history, work, and communal and spiritual life. One section captures a "typical" day in the life of the Brethren and Sisters. The enlarged font is easy on the eyes and ...             Angkor (River Books)6 reviews Claude Jacques Thames & Hudson Ltd, 1997 A Comprehensive History Of The Khmer Empire Angkor Cities And Temples is perhaps one of the most beautiful books I have ever had the pleasure of owning.

Not only by virtue of his technical skills, which are considerable, but because ...             Japan Modern3 reviews Michiko Rico Nose Mitchell Beazley, 2000 Eye-candy -- but also brain-candy I've long been interested in the Japanese approach to design of all sorts, but especially architecture. Coming from a much different tradition, the solutions to problems and needs for shelter are often very different than those arrived at by architects with Euro-American tastes and training. Some of the examples depicted so beautifully and discussed so shrewdly in this volume are rooted strongly ...             Frank Lloyd Wright: The Masterworks13 reviews Rizzoli International Publications, 1993 A brief comment I've seen a lot of books on Wright over the years, and read a number of them, but for sheer enjoyment and the celebration of his work, this work is the best I've seen. It strikes the best balance between the photos and text, but the photos are truly magnificent and worth the price of the book by themselves. Much of the information, as another reviewer has commented, is available in other books on ...             Arizona (Compass American Guides)3 reviews Larry Cheek Compass America Guides, 1991 Fantastic!

Michael Freeman's knowledge of the culture, history, and languages, of the time period (Spanish Inquisition) is astounding. I couldn't put the book down and I thought about the characters when I wasn't reading, and long after I finished the book.             Image: Designing effective pictures (Amphoto photography workshop series)3 reviews Michael Freeman Amphoto, 1988 Understand why images visually work I've been searching for this book for a long ever since seeing it at the library when I was 10. The book explains easier topics such as contrast, but it delves into far more complex topics such as balance, lighting, perspective, and color. This book is meant to be studied and reread multiple times. The examples are exquisite.             Ancient Angkor5 reviews Michael Freeman Weatherhill, 1999 Ancient Angkor A lovingly prepared compilation of superb color photographs, maps, history and scholarly explanations of the major world monument that is Angkor Wat.
