Summary: From the Introduction - "The Narrative of recent architecture tells how 'Post-Modernism ', was born to disreputable Modernist parents, left home and took to the road, how he went to Shingle-Style and Neo-Corbusian America how he served in the household of Late-Modernism, and how, after more adventures- such as the short lived affairs he had with Queen-Anne Revival and Collegiate Gothic - he returned to a Classicism that was to be qualified as 'free-style'."
