Product Information
Take an intimate journey through the family, history, and architecture of 20 residential treasures in Wisconsin's Own by M. Caren Connolly and Louis Wasserman. Richly illustrated with the photography of Zane Williams and complemented by historical images and watercolors and line drawings, Wisconsin's Own profiles the architectural history of state's most remarkable residences built between 1854 and 1939. The houses are a mix of public and private homes that are representative of varied architectural styles, from an Italianate along the Mississippi River and an interpretation of a sixteenth-century northern Italian villa overlooking Lake Michigan to an Adirondack-style camp in the North Woods and a fourteen-bedroom Georgian Revival mansion on Lake Geneva. Frank Lloyd Wright's Prairie School is, of course, represented as well with examples by Wright and his mentor Louis Sullivan. Wisconsin's Own tells the story of the considerable contribution that each of these historic homes have made to American residential architecture. It also answers the questions who built the house, what brought them to Wisconsin, why they selected that particular style, and how it is that this historic home still stands--and shines--today.

Reviews
A richly detailed, generously illustrated study of historic, opulent Wisconsin homes. This is not a pretty coffee-table book. With its clear, intelligent essays and color photography, it is the hardbound equivalent of a freindly and knowing docent walk through theses manses., "In a very real sense, history is just stories about people. This marvelous book uses stories about people--where they came from, what they believed in, what they dreamed of, and especially what kind of homes they built--to present a compelling history of a special part of America. From a quirky octagon of the 1850s to an Art Moderne marvel of the 1930s, the houses on these pages remind us of the richness of Wisconsin's heritage--and the importance of keeping it intact and alive." ( Richard Moe, President, National Trust for Historic Preservation ) " Wisconsin's Own: Twenty Remarkable Homes is so visually and intellectually stunning that you can forget the iPad or Kindle. You'll want to hold this exhaustively researched book in your hands. It's easy to lose hours savoring the photos, detailed historic images and informative text. Many people think the state's architectural legacy begins and ends with Frank Lloyd Wright. Milwaukee architects-cum-authors M. Caren Connolly and Louis Wasserman prove them wrong. They studied 1,500 residences to produce this private tour of the state's 20 most architecturally and historically significant homes. The pedigrees of these homes--built between 1854 and 1939--derive from the industrial magnates and celebrities who once owned them. A must-see for lovers of historic homes." ( Mary Van de Kamp Nohl, Milwaukee Magazine ) "The domiciles are artfully yet simply represented with 380 color and black-and-white images. The book is highly readable from cover to cover but will also offer new information and inspiration to readers who wish to browse. Sidebars provide concise answers to questions about architectural styles and architects. Beautiful images of the homes, their rooms, and architectural details can be found on every page." ( Valerie Nye, Library Journal ) "Each of these indeed remarkable homes is presented in detail with stunning color illustrations, which include Zane Williams's new photography of each impeccably preserved site, historical photographs of the homes from the time of their first residents, maps, and exquisite full-color elevations and plans handdrawn by Connolly and Wasserman. The drawings are so impressive--serving both as nuggets of information and tiny works of art--that one is grateful for and delighted by the appendix that describes the authors' drawing process in full detail. The images alone that grace Wisconsin's Own are enough to keep this book placed prominently on the coffee table, but the illuminating, well-researched, and pleasantly narrative text will keep readers from simply flipping through it like a picture book." ( Kara Mason, ForeWord Reviews ) "A richly detailed, generously illustrated study of historic, opulent Wisconsin homes. This is not a pretty coffee-table book.

Do not buy from this seller! Item was not as advertised, used, dirty, missing pages and basically a wait to get money back! Had to jump through their hoops to get my money back even after looking and finding this is something they do a lot of. Please read the reviews!,,
