Beschreibung
Signed first printing of the story of the construction of a book about the construction of a building a delightfully self-referential look back on David Macaulay's development of the Caldecott Medal-winning CATHEDRAL. David Macaulay is known for his ability to deconstruct complex structures, whether they are buildings, stories, or even the human body. With a degree in architecture from RISD and a love of machines of all kinds, it's easy to spot his inspiration for his beloved children's books. Macaulay has earned a variety of awards for his work, including a Caldecott Medal, a MacArthur Fellowship, and was twice a nominee for the Hans Christian Andersen Award. 14'' x 10.25''. Original color pictorial boards. Original unclipped ($29.95) color pictorial dust jacket. Illustrated in black and white. 112 pages. Signed by Macaulay to half title page.
