200186006Phoenix Arizona: The Arizona Biltmore Resort & Spa c2001. Presumed First Edition First printing thus. Pamphlet. Very good. The format is approximately 6 inches by 9 inches. 8 pages. Illustrations some in color. Crowned "The Jewel of the Desert" at its Grand Opening Gala on February 23 1929 this premiere resort hotel is the perfect climate of the Arizona desert began as the vision of two brothers Charles and Warren McArthur. The recruited their older brother Albert Chase McArthur a former apprentice to Frank Lloyd Wright as head architect. The Wrightian influence is omnipresent as McArthur invited Mr. Wright himself to oversee the construction as consulting architect. It is recorded that Wright spent four months quietly supporting McArthur in establishing the final architectural splendor of the hotel. The Arizona Biltmore Hotel is a resort located in Phoenix near 24th Street and Camelback Road. Designed by Albert Chase McArthur it opened on February 23 1929 as part of the Biltmore Hotel chain. Actors Clark Gable and Carole Lombard often stayed there and the Tequila sunrise cocktail was invented there. It later became part of Waldorf Astoria Hotels and Resorts. Warren McArthur Jr. and brother Charles McArthur along with John McEntee Bowman the entrepreneur behind the Biltmore Hotel chain opened the Arizona Biltmore on February 23 1929. The Arizona Biltmore's architect of record is Albert Chase McArthur brother of the hotel owners yet the design is often mistakenly attributed to Frank Lloyd Wright. This is due to Wright's on-site consulting for four months in 1928 relating to the "Textile Block" construction used in the hotel. Albert McArthur had been a draftsman for Wright and specifically asked Wright to assist with implementing the textile block system which became a signature element of the hotel's appearance. The hotel has similarities to several Wright buildings especially in the main lobby owing to a strong imprint of the unit block design that Wright had utilized on four residential buildings in the Los Angeles area six years earlier. McArthur is indisputably the architect as original linen drawings of the hotel in the Arizona State University Library archives attest as does a 1929 feature article in Architectural Record magazine. The two architects are a study in contrast with the famous and outspoken Wright being self-taught and never licensed as an architect in Arizona. The more soft-spoken McArthur was Harvard-trained in architecture mathematics engineering and music. McArthur obtained an architect's license in Arizona number 338 in 1925 the year he arrived in Phoenix to begin his practice. Adding to the confusion Frank Lloyd Wright influences have been added to the property over the years. This includes a stained glass window design entitled "Saguaro Forms and Cactus Flowers" that Wright designed as a magazine cover for Liberty Magazine in 1926. It was fabricated by Taliesin students and installed during the 1973 hotel renovations and restoration. Reproductions of the geometric 'sprite' statues originally designed by Wright and sculpted by Alfonso Iannelli for the 1915 Midway Gardens project in Chicago are placed around the property. Also the original hotel solarium was converted to a restaurant in 1973 and since the mid-1990s has been named 'Wright's'. Three onsite restaurants bear Wright's name: Wright's at the Biltmore The Wright Bar and Frank & Albert's. Three construction crews worked 24 hours a day to complete the hotel. S. M. Benet & Company of Beverly Hills California was contractor with L. D. Richardson serving as project superintendent. The Arizona Biltmore Resort & Spa unknown

B00039130Gebundene Ausgabe: 392 Seiten Verlag: Piccin Nuova Libraria S.p.A. Januar 1988 Sprache: Englisch ISBN-10: 8829902314 ISBN-13: 978-8829902316 PREFACE The original objective in writing this book was to provide a guide for the young surgeon to the technique of exposure of peripheral nerves. These operations are not particularly difficult but their proper execution calls for a good knowledge of surgical anatomy and for skill in the special techniques which under certain conditions may prove not only useful but essential. This skill is based on experience for the latter is not easily acquired in as much as surgical nerve lesions are not very common and furthermore are on different occasions dealt with by general surgeons neurosurgeons as well as by orthopaedic and plastic surgeons. Adequate individual experience is thus difficult to come by. As we ourselves know only too well in exposure of nerves which are rarely subject to surgical intervention this lack of practice may prove a source of some embarrassment and no little difficulty. Under the circumstances a search in the library is not always practicable or rewarding and thus a reference text providing individual descriptions of exposure techniques for all spinal nerves was deemed to meet a real need. However soon after embarking on the preparation of the text we had to recognize that by adhering to our original objective we would produce only a very incomplete guide to the surgery of nerves limited to a single aspect of the subject which though important is not decisive ae regards the essential scope of the intervention i.e. the restoration of function. A textbook of nerve surgery restricted to exposure techniques could have ordentliches Exemplar Einband und Buchblock mit kleinen Lesespuren Buchblock altersgemäß gebräunt Gesamtzustand: gut unknown
