As a big FLW architecture fan, I found this book to be the gold mine of his design projects.

I recall when purchased new in shrink wrap in the late 1990's it cost about $50. Gone up in value since according to going prices at Amazon.

Includes only light background discussion of each project, but there is an architectural summary plan drawing for each entry apparently copied from original drawings.

The edition I have is all black & white. Accompanying color pics would have been nice, but I have a fair amount of other FLW books with color pics to compliment this book. Sounds like later editions of this book might have color photography according to other reviews.

I found the index and project numbering to be less that optimal. However, I suspect there might be a dozen ways to catalog all of FLW's works so I not complaining.

This is an excellent book that I regularly refer to when I get into my architecture book browsing mode. It is sized just right to rest in my lap for an afternoon of browsing in a comfy chair. Probably is now too expensive to casually purchase if found in a bookstore. I would definitely encourage at least reviewing at a local library.
