Reviews
"A herculean, generally successful effort to present Mies's work in terms of both character and context. . . .This book has obviously been a long labor of love and respect for which no source has been left untouched.", One recent book, however, has been largely overlooked by reviewers, perhaps because it appears to be merely a revised edition of a volume that Mies lovers already have on their bookshelves. Other than the title, though, the book is a completely different animal. . . . Fresh research into Mies's American commissions, among them the troubled history of his most alluring American residential work--a transparent glass house for the eminent nephrologist Dr. Edith Farnsworth--has resulted in an almost entirely new book., This excellent revised edition of a work originally published in 1985, has 138 illustrations, incisive descriptions of Mies' innovative creations and a fascinating account of his Pyrrhic victory in a lawsuit against his disaffected client Edith Farnsworth., This authoritative biography of Mies van der Rohe has been updated through building records, the recollections of students and a court transcript. It's a gripping read, even if you're not a fan., The most comprehensive book ever written about the master designer and, by any measure, the best. . . . Because no writer has ever before probed into Mies's life at such depth, we have here the first definitive reconstruction of the architect's personal habits, loves, fears, triumphs, loneliness and (in his old age) agonies., A herculean, generally successful effort to present Mies's work in terms of both character and context. . . .This book has obviously been a long labor of love and respect for which no source has been left untouched., Franz Schulze's 1985 biography of Ludwig Mies van der Rohe has always been acknowledged as the most comprehensive and thoughtful biography of one of the key figures in twentieth-century architecture. This revised edition with significant new scholarship by its two authors will undoubtedly come to occupy the same position., One recent book, however, has been largely overlooked by reviewers, perhaps because it appears to be merely a revised edition of a volume that Mies lovers already have on their bookshelves. Other than the title, though, the book is a completely different animal. . . . Fresh research into Mies's American commissions, among them the troubled history of his most alluring American residential work-a transparent glass house for the eminent nephrologist Dr. Edith Farnsworth-has resulted in an almost entirely new book.

Synopsis
Mies van der Rohe: A Critical Biography is a major rewriting and expansion of Franz Schulze's acclaimed 1985 biography, the first full treatment of the master German-American modern architect. Coauthored with architect Edward Windhorst, this revised edition, three times the length of the original text, features extensive new research and commentary and draws on the best recent work of American and German scholars. The authors' major new discoveries include the massive transcript of the early-1950s Farnsworth House court case, which discloses for the first time the facts about Mies's epic battle with his client Edith Farnsworth. Giving voice to dozens of architects who knew and worked with (and sometimes against) Mies, this comprehensive biography tells the compelling story of how Mies and his students and followers created some of the most significant buildings of the twentieth century., This is a thorough revision, brimming with new material, of Franz Schulze's classic biography about architect Mies van der Rohe. The consensus among architectural historians is that Schulze's book is the best--and most authoritative--one ever written (not to mention the only biography) about Mies, who introduced the International Style to America and established Chicago and IIT as a hub of mid-century modern design.
