Because this particular book covers fewer projects than other books in the Basic Architecture series, it's able to provide a nice level of detail about the projects that are covered. There are basic drawings provided for the majority of the buildings. Many of the photos are by Julius Shulman and many are printed in color. As with the other books in this series, the print quality is excellent.
