Reviews
"A deeply researched book . . . . The 150 photographs . . . help introduce readers to the scope of her talent, which extended from grand classical colonnades to somewhat rustic, intimate Arts and Crafts domestic structures. . . . Kastner also presents details about Morgan that make her come alive as a person." -- 1st Dibs, "Handsome and comprehensive . . . Victoria Kastner's words, along with Alexander Vertikoff's photography, provide a sweeping overview of Julia Morgan's vast, versatile body of work. You'll want to get a hard copy of this book; e-readers don't do justice to the photos or the layout. It's a volume to hold in your hands and savor." -- San Francisco Chronicle, "Kastner pulls back the curtain on Julia Morgan, . . . highlighting the grit and grace that Morgan possessed." -- The Christian Science Monitor, "Handsome and comprehensive . . . Victoria Kastner's words, along with Alexander Vertikoff's photography, provide a sweeping overview of Julia Morgan's vast, versatile body of work. You'll want to get a hard copy of this book; e-readers don't do justice to the photos or the layout. It's a volume to hold in your hands and savor." - San Francisco Chronicle, "Kastner . . . peppers her detailed narrative with quotes, anecdotes, excerpts from personal correspondence, period newspaper clippings, family photos, sketches, and architectural renderings. Her subject emerges as soft-spoken and driven, an independent woman completely dedicated to her profession. Roughly the last half of the book addresses the construction of Hearst Castle, a project that lasted twenty-eight years. Many of Morgan's other structures still stand, as documented in numerous full-color, full-page photographs. This is an intimate portrait of a true trailblazer, and a fitting tribute to the first female recipient of the American Institute of Architects' prestigious Gold Medal." -- Booklist, "A closer look at the woman who helped build the American West. . . . Kastner makes an unassailable case for her as the patron architect of California." -- Alta, "Despite her many accomplishments, Morgan has largely been forgotten. Kastner's book resurrects the architect's professional impact on the field of architecture and on the California landscape. . . . The author also weaves in diary entries, letters, and interviews . . . giving us a glimpse of Morgan's elusive, unique personality." -- Hyperallergic, "Morgan was one of the most prolific, modest, and elusive characters in the history of the profession, as . . . Victoria Kastner demonstrates and decodes." -- Town and Country, "This revealing look at Morgan's personal life emerged from Kastner's decades of research. . . . While Morgan remains most famous for San Simeon, the book sheds new light on the more than 700 other projects, both public and residential, that comprise Morgan's extraordinary portfolio." -- Luxe Interiors + Design, "Kastner, who worked as the historian at Hearst Castle, has pored over family letters and business correspondence as well as Morgan's drawings to bring us a book . . . that walks us . . . through the life and career of an extraordinary woman. . . . Kastner's book is lavishly illustrated with Morgan's delicate drawings and gorgeous finished creations." -- The Washington Post, "Morgan was one of the most prolific, modest, and elusive characters in the history of the profession, as . . . Victoria Kastner demonstrates and decodes." -- Town Country
