Because of the pandemic, we are making this issue available immediately online for those of you who can access digitally. We hope you will enjoy it in this time of the coronavirus-imposed sheltering in place.

You may also access more information about classical architecture through a series of lectures by Calder Loth.  The links to the sereis can be found in the Resources section of this website.
