Julian Abele, Architect and the Beaux Arts uncovers the life of one
of the first beaux arts trained African American architects.
Overcoming racial segregation at the beginning of the twentieth
century, Abele received his architecture degree from the University
of Pennsylvania in 1902. Wilson traces Abele's progress as he went
on to become the most formally educated architect in America at
that time. Abele later contributed to the architectural history of
America by designing over 200 buildings throughout his career
including the Widener Memorial Library (1913) at Harvard University
and the Free Library of Philadelphia (1917). Architectural history
is a valuable resource for those studying architecture. As such
this book is beneficial for academics and students of architecture
and architectural historians with a particular interest in minority
discussions.
