About this product

Product Information

Now back-in-print in a new, very affordable edition, this significant volume offers a strikingly illustrated, extensively researched history of Palm Beach architecture. It reveals the stories behind the families who built these palatial homes with exquisite detailing, lavish interiors, and semi-tropical gardens. Valuable close-ups on Addison Mizner, Maurice Fatio, and Marion Sims Wyeth, the three major architects in the area during the 1920s and 1930s, are also included. These impeccably built homes of the super-rich were designed by some of America's most famous architects. The book will appeal to architecture historians as well as those interested in the glamorous style of life depicted in such publications as Town & Country and Architectural Digest.
