First published in 1989, this updated edition celebrates this seminal American architect.

Between 1912 and 1968, Philip Trammell Shutze produced over 750 architectural works. Because he was so prolific, the book examines only his most essential work, which as a body represents an architec-tural achievement of a very high order of refinement,

grace, and beauty.

A graduate of Georgia Tech, Shutze stayed one year at Columbia University before he won the prestigious Rome Prize, traveling shortly thereafter to Rome. There he remained for five years, learning everything he could about the great buildings of the Renaissance and Baroque periods. On his return to the U.S., Shutze worked in New York for Mott Schmidt, who designed townhouses for such families as the Astors, Morgans, and Vanderbilts, and he also worked for F. Burrall Hoffman, whose master-piece is Villa Vizcaya in Miami. Within a few years, though, he returned to Georgia, to design in the Classical and traditional styles some of the most beautiful buildings ever to grace the American landscape.

本书首次出版于1989年，此更新版是为了纪念这位重要的美国建筑师。

从1912年到1968年，菲利普·特拉梅尔·舒策（Philip Trammell Shutze）创作了超过750件建筑作品。由于他作品繁多，本书只研究了他最重要的作品，这些作品作为一个整体代表了精致、优雅和美丽的高水准的建筑成就。

舒策毕业于佐治亚理工学院，在获得知名的罗马奖之前，他在哥伦比亚大学呆了一年，之后不久便前往罗马。他在罗马呆了五年，学习了关于文艺复兴和巴洛克时期的伟大建筑的一切知识。回到美国后，舒策在纽约为莫特·施密特（Mott Schmidt）工作，后者为阿斯特家族、摩根家族和范德比尔特家族设计联排别墅，他还为F·伯拉尔·霍夫曼（F. Burrall Hoffman）工作，其代表作是迈阿密的维兹卡亚别墅。不过，没过几年，他就回到了佐治亚州，以古典和传统风格设计了一些精湛的建筑，为美国的风景增添了光彩。
