Title: good theory, limited facts
Review: Mr. Silber hits the mark with his observation that today's trim is inadequate for big rooms and tall ceilings. However, while he addresses several styles of trim, he concentrates only on wall frames for technique. I'm a big fan of the prairie style and after spotting a reference to Frank Lloyd Wright in the Table of Contents, bought the book. I was most disappointed to find only 1 paragraph about prairie and nothing whatsoever on the size or shape of that style of trim (such as S4S). There were no suggestions at all for its installation - just one photo of one room in the entire book. I returned it. If you like the styles that use wall frames, this may be the book for you. Don't waste your money if you like prairie or Arts & Crafts.
