Summary note
"Perhaps the most important architect ever to have worked in America, Peter Harrison's renown suffers from the destruction of most of his papers when he died. He was born in Yorkshire and trained to be an architect. He also became a ship captain, sailed to America where he began designing some of the most iconic buildings"-- Provided by publisher.
