Business Book Library

This started with my Wine Book Library. People regularly ask me where they can learn more about wine. A fine wine-book library is almost as rewarding as a fine wine library. On that page is a selection of wine and wine-country related books from my library. Below are other books I've read recently that  I hope you find as useful and entertaining I did! Then came Ricks (book) Library followed by my Business Book Library and now video favorites - Videos, Movies, and TV favorites.

Raymond Richard Neutra
Dr. Raymond Richard Neutra traces the forty-year relationship between his parents and the great architect Frank Lloyd Wright. His father, pioneer modern architect Richard Neutra, worked for his idol Frank Lloyd Wright and spent his career exploring the American industrial potential for economical and light weight housing, schools, medical facilities and other “architecture of social concern.” The influence of Wright on Neutra and how Neutra adapted, adopted and added strategies and design features to gradually develop what was to become mid-century “California Modern.”
