About this title

Synopsis

This is the first complete biography of the inimitable society architect Addison Mizner, whose Spanish Revival buildings created a new style of resort architecture for Palm Beach and south Florida during the boom years of the 1920s.

Review

"If anything, Mizner's work is more relevant today than it was twenty years ago. Then, it was his work that seemed stale. Now Modern architecture is the thing that is stale and Mizner has renewed freshness."--Paul Goldberger, "The New York Times"
