Everyone loves to watch a building going up--& what could be more fascinating than seeing the land-marks of the world being built? With more than one hundred historical photographs, Works in Progress invites us behind the construction fences of over eighty well-known structures--from the Statue of Liberty to the space shuttle Endeavour. The chronicle of their rise spans the age of photography from the 1860s to the present & shows the important role of photographs in documenting how our buildings get built.Rosenbaum, Alvin is the author of 'Works in Progress', published 1994 under ISBN 9780876540695 and ISBN 0876540698.
