Howland, Richard Hubbard, and Eleanor Patterson Spencer. The Architecture of Baltimore: A Pictorial History. Baltimore: Johns Hopkins Press, 1953.
Notes: Because it set forth the city's major buildings, designers, and stylistic eras, linking them with informed, economical prose and excellent illustrations, this first survey of Baltimore's architecture has become not only a classic but the armature for all subsequent efforts.

Notes: A planners' survey evidently prepared for the American Bicentennial, the booklet provides a well-illustrated history of one of Baltimore's most important areas and its people, threatened at the time by an expressway. The threat of the highway has since been removed; unfortunately much of Fells Point's industrial architecture, unique in the city, has disappeared as well.
