Harlem: Lost and Found
by Paul Rocheleau

In this long-overdue introductory history, Adams (American Regional Rooms: A New Perspective on Traditional Design) chronicles the architecture of Harlem from early Native American dwellings to buildings of the early 20th century. He discusses the interior and exterior features of residential housing as well as churches, synagogues, colleges, and various places of business. Adams successfully relates architectural designs to Harlem's social and economic trends, emphasizing the influence of ethnic and religious groups. Although the text is not referenced or noted, the detailed descriptions evidence substantial archival research. The beautiful full-page illustrations, which work effectively with the text, include historical photos and color photographs recently taken by architectural photographer Rocheleau. The book's useful index includes names of people and buildings as well as a numeric listing of street addresses.
