Historic Photos of the Opry: Ryman Auditorium 1974 (Historic Photos.)
Called the Mother Church of Country Music, the Ryman Auditorium closed a historic chapter in its life in 1974 when the Grand Ole Opry moved to new quarters at Opryland USA. Nashville photographer Jim McGuire was there, with full access to the Ryman in its final months as the Opry's home. Collected here are more than 100 of the best of McGuire s images, most of them never published, all of them handsomely reproduced and captioned. Garrison Keillor, legendary host of A Prairie Home Companion, a radio show inspired in part by the Opry and on occasion performed on stage at the Ryman, writes the foreword. Marty Stuart follows up with opening remarks on McGuire and his work. This volume is a must-have for any fan of country music, and for every fan of the Opry at the Ryman..

The Auditorium Building (Building Book s.) (Pomegranate Catalog, No. A687)
Commissioned by Ferdinand Peck and produced by architects Louis Sullivan and Dankmar Adler--soon to be leaders of the Chicago School--in 1889, the Auditorium Building was a wondrous complex, housing a hotel, offices, stores, and a theater. Adler's engineering skills overcame the problem of a foundation that had to support an unevenly distributed weight; Sullivan designed the stunning theater, which was spanned by four elliptical arches studded with 3,500 incandescent electric lights and decorated with gold leaf. Adler created a hydraulic stage--with twenty-six lifts--and one of the first air-conditioning systems in a public building. Among the many design features in the interior of the Auditorium were murals, onyx, marble, open loggias, stained glass, filigreed vents, wainscoting, and bronze-plated posts. Scholars considered the Auditorium Building the most important single structure in Chicago..

The Chicago Auditorium Building: Adler and Sullivan's Architecture and the City (Chicago Architecture and Urbanism)
Winner of the Alice Davis Hitchcock Award from the Society of Architectural Historians When the magnificent Auditorium Building opened on Chicago's Michigan Avenue in December 1889, it marked Chicago's emergence both as the leading city of the Midwest and as a metropolis of international stature. In this lavishly illustrated book, Joseph M. Siry explores not just the architectural history of the Auditorium Building but also the crucial role it played in Chicago's social history. Covering the Auditorium from the early design stage to its opening, its later renovations, its links to culture and politics in Chicago, and its influence on later Adler and Sullivan works (including the Schiller Building and the Chicago Stock Exchange Building), this volume recounts the fascinating tale of a building that helped to define a city and an era. .
