St. Paul's Architecture by Jeffrey A Hess
Presents an architectural history of the beautiful St Paul, Minnesota.
"Few cities in the Midwest, or elsewhere for that matter, can match the rich architectural history of StPaul, and it can all be found in this splendid new book. Jeffrey Hess and Paul Clifford Larson have given us an opportunity to appreciate this history anew through carefully chosen images and a compelling text. It's a book I highly recommend." —Richard Moe, President of the National Trust for Historic Preservation
"St. Paul's Architecture not only chronicles the high-style and high-profile buildings in the city, but also documents the rise of St. Paul's late nineteenth-century urban core, its early twentieth-century residential areas, and its late twentieth-century revival. The book offers a fascinating look at the evolution of the architectural profession as well, with insights into the social, political, and artistic role it plays in the life of a city." —Thomas Fisher, Dean, College of Architecture and Landscape Architecture, University of Minnesota
"St. Paul's Architecture offers the most thorough account to date of St. Paul's architectural legacy and makes a valuable contribution to the historic record of the city." —Larry Millett, author of Lost Twin Cities and Twin Cities Then and Now
