Product Information
In June 1950, Frank Lloyd Wright paid a surprise visit to the Grant house, under construction near Cedar Rapids, Iowa. This was Wright's first visit to the site, and he was worried about the house because, unlike most of Wright's clients, Doug Grant was building it himself, serving as his own general contractor and doing his own electrical work and carpentry. He and his wife, Jackie, quarried all of the stone for the house from their own quarry on the property, and both took an active part in the construction. Upon his return to Taliesin, Wright told the assembled group of architects and apprentices that he was extremely pleased by what he had seen. He delivered a long tribute to Grant, calling the act of building one's own house "an American proceeding." The book's foreword, contributed by the Wright Foundation's Director of Archives, Bruce Brooks Pfeiffer, calls the Grant house, "among some of the finest and most inspired that Frank Lloyd Wright ever designed."

Our relationship with Jesus Christ is most important to nurture daily, and this devotional is the best ever!! To know Christ as your personal Lord and Savior is a paramount decision, not only because of the never-ending love & peace He brings in the midst of the world's turmoil, and not only because of the miraculous blessings He pours out with His Divine presince, but because if you receive Him as Savior, you will be with Him eternally in heaven. Noone should risk the alternative of hell.
