Winner of the 2007 Art Libraries Society of North America Worldwide Books Award Examines Pittsburgh's built environment as it relates to the city's unique topography—man's response to an unruly terrain of hills, hollows, and rivers. Adopting a spectator's viewpoint, Aurand studies three "terrestrial rooms" and their development over time.
