The first half of the twentieth century was a culturally and artistically rich era in Cuba. Architects of the modern movement enthusiastically sought to define the identity of this tine Caribbean nation, and their vision is most notably revealed in the capital city of Havana. This is the first book to recognize and catalog the enormous architectural wealth of Havana built between 1925 and 1965. The guide features 200 structures ranging from private homes to hotels, churches and government buildings. Included are maps organized by neighborhood, archival and contemporary photographs, plans for each building and a brief history of the modern movement in Cuba and the architects responsible for the brilliant diversity of Havana's landscape.
