"This is the most fantastic and complete architectural reference I have ever encountered.
No one knows all the little, pedantic architectural terms you need to study the built world. This book not only has all of them but is full of beautiful and informative illustrations. Everyone who studies architecture; students in: art history, architecture, historic preservation and engineering should have a copy of this book on hand.
Check it out from a library, see how useful it is and then go buy it."
