The Country Houses of David Adler

The first comprehensive study of one of America's great house architects.

The Country Houses of David Adler (1882-1949) discusses in depth fifteen representative houses (many with interiors by Adler's sister, the noted interior designer Frances Elkins), illustrated with fine archival photographs and newly drawn plans. In addition, the full scope of Adler's work is documented in an illustrated catalogue raisonné.

Stephen M. Salny is an architecture and design historian who lives in Baltimore, Maryland.
