A revised and expanded omnibus version of Pillar to Post and Homes Sweet Homes, this engaging architectural history offers a survey of American architecture from the earliest times until the 1950s. Including recognisable architectural styles such as Gothic, Baroque, and Regency, as well as his take on more modern styles such as 'Bankers' Georgian', 'Aldwych Farcical' and 'The Wide Open Plan'. Written and illustrated by Sir Osbert Lancaster, an English cartoonist, architectural historian, stage designer and author. In the original yellow cloth binding.
