The publication of his autobiography and the foundation shortly afterwards of the Taliesin Fellowship Wright at the age of sixty-five to a new threshold in his life, not only because he found himself work in the aftermath of the 1929 stock-market crash but also because he had to confront an entirely different situation from the one in which he had worked at the turn of the century.
Now, as is evident from his essays of the early 1930s, he had to recognize his Midwestern isolation in the picturesque but provincial landscape of his beloved Wisconsin and the emergence of a new architectural situation that ironically enough was largely due to his own influence, as disseminated through the Wasmuth portfolios of his executed projects.
All of this is at once evident from the initial essays that open this third volume of his collected writings, beginning with a typical complaint as to the way he had been misunderstood by Europeans, who had, in his view, already taken his reformist zeal too far and turned it into the kind of stripped abstraction that he abhorred, as he put it in his first essay of 1931.
