How to Read Buildings: A Crash Course in Architectural Styles

Llegó muy rápido y el libro es perfecto, muy útil y con buena información.

I love architecture and this book is easy to read and explains different type of architecture well.

Absolutely love this little book!

Quick delivery, fair price and good condition

I ADORE this sturdy little manual. I can't get enough of it! It is concisely packed with scholarly information. After hours and hours of study as an Interior Design and Art History major, I love being able to sit down with a concise compendium of easy to reference, erudite information on architectural types and styles, from vaults to pilasters. It is not overly verbose (as are most texts on the subject), which works for my learning style.Information is separated into quick sections with small reproductions of period etchings, which are viewable in such fine detail that you may even occasionally want to whip out your pocket magnifying glass. I mean, it's all here. Do yourself a favor and buy this book, carry it with you, and ENJOY the heck out of it! Do I sound happy? OH YEAH!! Great purchase! More please.

Love the compact size. You can walk around the buildings and actually study them while reading this book

This book has a lot of information useful for artists and architectural fanatics. It is a strictly informational book, if you do not find the information interesting, you will be bored.I wholly recommend it, but it will not interest people looking for stories.

I bought this to have a quick reference for architectural terms and styles and it is perfect. Well organized. A bit hard to read due to size but a very handy book.

In the 80s there used to be a series of books "how to bluff your way in...." This is much better, filled full of short bullet points and excellent drawings. Easy reference and urns you into a pro! Great to identify building parts and then if you wish obtain further details once you know what your looking for

Amazing book, very informative. Helped with assignments

Good pocket book. Has good content. The pages were in shades of dark colours which puts off the intrigue in a reader.A better depiction of content would make it enjoyable.

Thank you, very helpful reference book to go. Well put together little book.

This is an excellent book - really informative and easy to refer to (for someone new to subject)
