"Well documented and superbly illustrated. . . . This will surely remain the standard work on the subject, based on acquaintance with the architecture of western Asia as well as that of Venice about which she has written the best brief history."-Hugh Honour, New York Review of Books


"First published in 1980, Howard's Architectural History of Venice hasbecome an indispensable guide to the architectural treasures of Venice. This new, revised and enlarged version further improves on the first edition: new chapters have been added to explore the most recent architectural developments in Venice. . . . This beautifully illustrated, handy, one-volume discussion of the architectural history of Venice will appeal as much to an audience already familiar with the classic first edition as to a new generation of readers."-Gabriele Neher, The Art Book
