It is for a house created by you.’ " Includes one photograph of the Pope-Leighey home. Original cover price $2.50.

Description: "The Relationship of Two Maverick Architects. The American architectural icon Frank Lloyd Wright (1867-1959) taught many apprentices who produced valid architecture based upon his organic philosophy.

Unquestionably, one of Florida’s most respected and renowned architects, Alfred Browning Parker (1916- ) was one such individual." Includes six photographs.
