FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT: THE LOST YEARS, 1910-1922 is a landmark study that reconstructs Wright�'s early travels to Europe, provides the definitive history of his famous Wasmuth publications, and
introduces an experimental Primitivist phase in the architect�'s work that followed his ���irst Golden Age.���Challenging conventional assumptions about influence, this pioneering work also
reveals for the first time Wright�'s interest in feminism that grew from his relationship with Mamah Borthwick, his doomed lover, and shows how contact with Europe in 1909-10 stimulated Wright
to expand his design process and revolutionize his methods of making ornament. It reconstructs Wright�'s travels in Europe and his return to America.Totally original and based on unpublished
archival materials, this readable book is a landmark in studies on Frank Lloyd Wright and a significant contribution to the history of modern architecture.
