The Architecture of John Duncan Forsyth (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798622637988)

Through the eyes of his stepdaughter, the biography of John Duncan Forsyth tells the story of a prominent Scottish-American architect whose passion for architecture led him to create a vast body of work that spanned from the early to mid 1900's through North America and abroad. The architect of many of the homes for the 1920's Oklahoma oil barons, Forsyth was known for creating imposing structures that were elegant yet functional in a variety of architectural styles. Designing everything from residential to public buildings to dams, he combined old world grandeur with modern design. His genius was in his versatility and endless creativity resulting in several works of art that are listed in the National Register of Historic Places.
