Originally published in 1910-11 in Berlin, Germany, under the title Ausgeführte Bauten und Entwürfe von Frank Lloyd Wright, as a celebratory culmination of the first era of Wright's career in Europe. The work was largely unknown in the United States as the copies slated for American distribution were destroyed in the 1912 Taliesin fire. A single copy survived, from which this edition was produced. The publication was arranged by Wright in discussions with his publisher in 1958, before his death a year later.
Accompanied by a photographic portrait of Wright, inscribed by him to an acquaintance.
