About this ebook
Benjamin Henry Latrobe was a man of extraordinary talents - and high standards. One of the first professional architects in the United States, British-born Latrobe made his mark on America with his insistence on function as well as form. Among his most recognizable achievements are the central portion of the U.S. Capitol, the east and west wings of the White House, and Ashland, the home of Henry Clay. Here, in this short-form book by historian Marshall B. Davidson, is Latrobe's remarkable story.
