Reviews
"John Howe had a remarkable career in architecture. Joining Frank Lloyd Wright's Taliesin Fellowship at age nineteen, Howe quickly became the great architect's chief draftsman, and he was present at the creation of some of the most famous buildings of the twentieth century. After Wright's death, Howe established his own office in Minneapolis, designing scores of elegant homes and other works in the organic manner pioneered by Wright. John H. Howe, Architect offers a thorough, beautifully illustrated account of a quiet, gentle man who left behind one of the finest bodies of modern architecture in Minnesota."--Larry Millett, author of Minnesota's Own: Preserving our Grand Homes and Once There Were Castles: Lost Mansions and Estates of the Twin Cities "Jane King Hession and Tim Quigley have told a first-rate and engaging story. This book not only brings attention to the legacy of organic architecture as embodied in John H. Howe's work, but also reinvigorates the discussion of creating buildings in harmony with the nature of our planet."--Louis Wiehle, co-founder of Wiehle-Carr Architects and apprentice to Frank Lloyd Wright at Taliesin, "The book is a revelation, tracing Howe's rise from raw teenager to superbly accomplished designer."-- Star Tribune " John H. Howe: From Taliesin Apprentice to Master of Organic Architecture will make a happy addition to the libraries of architects, Wright enthusiasts and those who favor mid-century architecture and design."-- Friends of Fallingwater " John H. Howe, Architect is a compelling story of Howe's daily collaboration with Wright."-- Architecture Minnesota "In recounting Howe's experiences, the authors give a very good sense of the inner workings of Wright's studio, and indeed the personality and character of America's greatest architect."-- Ramsey County History "A richly illustrated and eminently readable book."-- Minnesota History, "The book is a revelation, tracing Howe's rise from raw teenager to superbly accomplished designer."-- Star Tribune " John H. Howe: From Taliesin Apprentice to Master of Organic Architecture will make a happy addition to the libraries of architects, Wright enthusiasts and those who favor mid-century architecture and design."-- Friends of Fallingwater " John H. Howe, Architect is a compelling story of Howe's daily collaboration with Wright."-- Architecture Minnesota "In recounting Howe's experiences, the authors give a very good sense of the inner workings of Wright's studio, and indeed the personality and character of America's greatest architect."-- Ramsey County History
