		Two days after it had been covered over, Raymond Hood announced that it would receive "very careful handling." At the worst, two possibilities were suggested as its fate: that it might temporarily be screened with a canvas mural; or that it might be removed, plaster and all, for preservation elsewhere.

		This is a must-have biography of Hood, written by an architect who joined the Hood office in 1928.
		The writing is a little stilted and pedantic, but this is still a worthwhile book, because it amounts to a complete catalogue of all Hood's work.
		This is a monograph published by the architect himself (not an unusual occurrence), and written back when architects didn't feel the need to indulge in obscure academic language when describing their work.
