The Work of Dwight James Baum

The Work of Dwight James Baum is a revised and expanded edition of the 1927 monograph. Edited by William Morrison and with a new introduction by Ronald McCarty, this volume showcases over 100 additional, rarely seen photographs of the architect s work, including Ca d Zan, the fantastical Venetian Gothic waterfront palace of John and Mable Ringling in Sarasota, Florida and the stately Italianate house of Anthony Campagna in Riverdale, New York. Also included are Baum s later career non-residential projects such as the fanciful Italian-Romanesque West Side YMCA in New York City and the ephemeral, Art Moderne-style buildings for the 1939 World s Fair in New York. The book features a comprehensive catalog of works and bibliography.
