ill. Elegante ristampa integrale del raro volume impresso a Napoli nel 1930. Un libro dimenticato e introvabile, eppure molto utile per la conoscenza dell'evoluzione urbana di Napoli in un periodo breve ma significativo per l'importanza e l'incisività delle opere realizzate, per il clima politico di un regime appena nato e, naturalmente, per comprendere le vicende architettoniche e urbanistiche degli anni successivi. Un libro per non lasciare nell'oblio attività e realizzazioni rilevanti, che una damnatio memoriae aveva relegato in un angolo morto. Quattrocento fotografie e planimetrie a corredo del testo fanno di questo libro uno strumento per lo studio della storia della città di Napoli.
numerosissime illustrazioni in bianco e nero e a colori
