"This book.will go a long way toward establishing Henry Austin's place in the pantheon of early-19th-century architectural innovators."--Eve Kahn, Traditional Building "This is a ground-breaking study of a major architect who did much to shape our image of the Victorian world. Austin was a complete cipher until now, and O'Gorman has done an admirable job of rescuing him from historical oblivion."--Michael J. Lewis, Faison-Pierson-Stoddard Professor of Art, Williams College "With his extensive background in 19th-century American architecture, James O'Gorman has put Henry Austin into the context of his time. Few in-depth books on individual antebellum architects are available, so this knowledgeable study of Austin is invaluable."--Christopher Wigren, deputy director, Connecticut Trust For Historic Preservation "Happily, O'Gorman's meticulously researched study puts Henry Austin's career back on firm footing and restores his rightful place as a pillar of New England's architectural heritage.

"--Jonathan M. Beagle, The New England Quarterly "This bookwill go a long way toward establishing Henry Austin's place in the pantheon of early-19th-century architectural innovators."--Eve Kahn, Traditional Building "James F. O'Gorman, a much-published architectural historian now retired from Wellesley College, as plumbed Austin's career. His beautifully illustrated Henry Austin: In Every Architectural Style is the first book to bring together much what Austin produced."--Philip langdon, Hartford Courant.
