Literary histories, of course, do not have a reason for being unless there exists the literature itself. This volume, perhaps more than others of its kind, is an expression of appreciation for the talented and dedicated literary artists who ignored the odds, avoided temptations to write for popularity or prestige, and chose to write honestly about the American West, believing that experiences long knowns to be of historical importance are also experiences that need and deserve a literature of importance.
Close-Up View of Froebel’S Kindergarten with Frank Lloyd Wright at the Drawing Table
Unparalleled account of two astute thinkers German Friedrich Froebel and American Frank Lloyd Wright about an intertwined connection between a captivating school-master and a tenacious master-architect. An in-depth examination of how children learn coupled with what Wright learned in Froebels Kindergarten and how he applied it at the drawing table. Appropriate for parents, caretakers and educators of children and young people up through college age; and academic scholars and avid practitioners who advocate for the preservation of Wrights legacy. Narrative transcends years of commonplace thinking and practices founded upon an unrivaled method that accurately led to patterns of lovely shapes and magnificent angles, the bedrock of Froebels historical kindergarten and Wrights timeless architecture.
