Architectural Heritage of the Caribbean
"Illustrated with colour plates and line drawings, Architectural Heritage of the Caribbean also traces the historical and economic developments which created the region's unique Creole styles. As governments and conservation societies look to the increasing potential of 'heritage tourism', this wide-ranging book provides an invaluable guide for visitors and students of architecture."--Jacket.
Architectural Conservation in Europe and the Americas
“From such well-known and long-vexed sites as the Athenian Acropolis to more contemporary locales like the Space Age Modernist capital city of Brasília, the conflicting and not always neatly resolvable forces that bear upon preservation are addressed as clearly and thoughtfully as the general reader could hope for.”—New York Review of Books “...an astonishing feat of research, compilation and synthesis.”—Context The book delivers the first major survey concerning the conservation of cultural heritage in both Europe and the Americas. Architectural Conservation in Europe and the Americas serves as a convenient resource for professionals, students, and anyone interested in the field. Following the acclaimed Time Honored, this book presents contemporary practice on a country-by-country and region-by-region basis, facilitating comparative analysis of similarities and differences. The book stresses solutions in architectural heritage protection and the contexts in which they were developed.
