Fallingwater book
Fallingwater Rising : Frank Lloyd Wright, E. J. Kaufmann, and America's Most Extraordinary House Fallingwater Rising is a biography not of a person but of the most famous house of the twentieth century. Scholars and the public have long extolled the house that Frank Lloyd Wright perched over a Pennsylvania waterfall in 1937, but the full story has never been told. When he got the commission to design the house, Wright was nearing seventy, his youth and his early fame long gone. It was the Depression, and Wright had no work in sight. Into his orbit stepped Edgar J. Kaufmann, a Pittsburgh department-store mogul–“the smartest retailer in America”–and a philanthropist with the burning ambition to build a world-famous work of architecture. "Highly Recommended".
Frank Lloyd Wright's House on Kentuck Frank Lloyd Wright's House on Kentuck Knob is splendidly written; simple, alive and captivating. Donald Hoffmann draws the reader right into the adventure of how Mr. and Mrs. Hagan acquired the site and got Wright, by then a quirky octogenarian, to design the building. Clearly the book, with all its illustrations, will be a steady seller for visitors who combine visits to Falling Water and Kentuck Knob. Donald Hoffmann served as art and architecture critic for the Kansas City Star from 1965 to 1990, was assistant editor of The Journal of the Society of Architectural Historians from 1970 to 1972, and is the author of seven books on the architecture of Frank Lloyd Wright, including Frank Lloyd Wright's Falling Water.
