Skyscrapers: A History of the World's Most Extraordinary Buildings -- Revised and Updated Hardcover – November 5, 2013

Nice book with great pictures ! Good gift for your friends

Very good

My 7 year old is fascinated by skyscrapers. This book arrived quick. I didn’t realize that it was such a big book and really love that it is for the effect of the pictures. It has great illustrations and stats on each building. It’s a hardcover book and visually stimulating due to the size of the pages and buildings on them. My son loves this book! We read this book with him before bedtime as well. I would recommend this book for adults as well as children interested in buildings. Definitely worth the price and smiles.

Large coffee table style book! Great gift for those skyscraper lovers! Updated and great hardback quality.

I have always loved loved loved tall buildings. The views and the vistas of many are best experienced first hand and so this book is a commemoration of all the different ways you can get up high and see the world around you.The book is stunning because the book format is tall and skinny, like the elevator ride that'll get you to the top.If you're looking for a collection of dreams made reality in the shape of tall buildings, then this is the book to get. Just make sure your bookshelf has some head clearance room!

This book is simply amazing!! I purchased it for my 9 year old son, who has become very interested in skyscrapers. The pictures are simply gorgeous and the information is amazing! I have found myself so interested in so much of information that I never knew about buildings that I’ve walked by hundreds of times!!!! Great job, Judith Dupre! This is a home run!!!!

I purchased this book for my 8 year old son who is obsessed with the tallest structures in the world. The pictures are beautiful and the information interesting. Some of the content is probably too verbose and written with vocabulary fit for a more mature reader. I found a few typos, which I found surprising, but it is still a great read. The size of the book is so big, we have a hard time just sitting on the couch reading it. It is definitely easer to read while sitting at a table.

My mom loves tall buildings so I wanted to get her a book on them. When "Skyscrapers" arrived it blew my mind!! My mother is going to be over the moon about this. I LOVE that the book IS A SKYSCRAPER! It's the tallest book I've ever seen. Thank!
