This classic portfolio uses elevations, floor plans, and other line drawings by Scotland's first great classical architect to document the country's 18th-century buildings. Unlike previous Vitruvius volumes, it features plans for many smaller structures and served as a model book for 19th-century American builders and architects. Its 160 plates include 100 of Adam's own designs.
