Features: History is created by people, and the history of architecture is no exception. The many vivid historical scenes presented in this book are not dry conceptual teachings, undoubtedly serving as an indispensable supplement to architectural history textbooks, and thus possessing greater inspirational and educational significance. It's no wonder some professors have told me that they occasionally quote examples from Reminiscences of Famous Architects in their lectures to inspire students. This book is a sequel to Reminiscences of Famous Architects, published in 2000. Motivated by the positive response the original book received, the editor collected and compiled over 70 articles at the request of readers, recreating many living historical scenes in the architectural field and documenting some little-known moving stories of its pioneers. It provides strong evidence for many historical events, showcasing vivid and realistic historical scenes, making it an indispensable supplement to history textbooks and holding great significance in inspiring future generations. This book is suitable for architects, faculty and students of architectural institutions, architectural historians, and cultural figures.
