Set against the backdrop of Charleston's historic charm, the narrative follows a diverse group of architects and builders from the 1980s who creatively reshape the city’s landscape. Among them are a self-taught builder, an Air Force pilot, and a bluegrass musician, each contributing unique structures that blend historical inspiration with modern design. Through their stories, Rybczynski highlights the significance of individual creativity in urban development and how a city's identity can evolve through innovative architecture.
