Historic Milwaukee Public Schoolhouses (Landmarks)
"Robert Tanzilo gives an endearing, personal account of some of the best of these buildings with their fairy-tale terra-cotta tiles and stunning woodwork." --David Luhrssen,Express Milwaukee"Public schools are cornerstones of their communities. They're landmarks that help form an identity, they're a key public gathering place, and for approximately 180 days a year they're bustling centers of activity. Unfortunately these buildings are increasingly treated as disposable, with no ornamentation and bland materials. Thankfully, Milwaukee is blessed with many beautiful buildings from an era long-passed. Robert Tanzilo was inspired to study those buildings in his latest book,Historic Milwaukee Public Schoolhouses." --Urban Milwaukee
