Ross King Praises THE LOUVRE: The Many Lives of the World’s Most Famous Museum by James Gardner
“His remarkable achievement is to show us how the building is every bit as spectacular and as fascinating as the treasures it holds.”
“His remarkable achievement is to show us how the building is every bit as spectacular and as fascinating as the treasures it holds.”
“…the author makes a strong case that a revolution in modernist design has found fulfillment in contemporary culture. An engaging and occasionally provocative analysis.”
“…a vivid chronicle of strife, wars, rivalries, and aspirations [and] …A richly detailed journey through a palimpsest of the past.”
“…the story of the Louvre as a royal palace has been largely eclipsed by its much shorter and more famous life as a museum…”
“…we’re looking forward to Dellatore’s newest tome, On Style, a collection of designers that represent the new guard of the profession.”
“…destined to become the title that all first-time visitors to Egypt are urged to pack… full of scoundrels turned heroes and heroes turned scoundrels.”
“… an ode to the ways engineering has improved human civilization, from how we communicate, build, use energy. move, and explore the universe.”
“…essential reading [for] anyone with even a remote interest in the history of popular song as captured in the grooves of the 12” vinyl long-playing album.”
“A thoughtful analysis of today’s unprecedented pace of change and what the future may hold.”
“Like the engineer he was trained to be, John Browne reveals a realistic and optimistic fabric of the future.”
