The focus of this book is on Charlton's architecture rather than his life, so readers should not expect a biography. But Brisson delivers an authoritative panorama of Charlton's architectural output replete with an index of all known extant works. Supplementing Brisson's descriptive writing are ample photographs and architectural renderings of nearly every structure mentioned. Reproductions of Charlton's own watercolor renderings underscore his precocious talent; by contrast, even the great Frank Lloyd Wright outsourced perspective drawings and watercolors to the specialists who worked under him. Brisson amply makes the point that much of the look of the Upper Peninsula owes itself to the fertile and cosmopolitan mind of D. Frederick Charlton, and the author delivers an affectionate tribute to his enduring legacy. [End Page 145]
