Reseña del editor:

The Art and Architecture of Herbert B. Turner conveys, with an absorbing narrative and generous, detailed illustrations, the life work of a remarkable figure. Beginning his career with an apprenticeship under John Llyod Wright (Frank Llyod Wright's son), Turner developed a unique architectural approach that combines a deep ecological sensibility and a regionalist outlook.

Nota de la solapa:

The Art and Architecture of Herbert B. Turner captures, in an absorbing narrative with extensive illustrations the life work of a remarkable creative figure. It is an object lesson in being open to possibilities. Turner's unique path combined the rigorous discipline of the West Point Military Academy, and intensive artistic education under New York master painters, and an architectural apprenticeship with John Lloyd Wright. His work has been characterized by a deep ecological sensibility and regionalist outlook, a commitment to community, social activism, and a love of people. Turner designed and built over 50 residential and commercial real estate projects, making a definitive mark on the character of Del Mar, California, a vibrant community set in a stunning coastal environment north of San Diego, California.
