Fine book by a striking writer.
Ian Nairn is now a little known figure in architectural criticism, but he was a striking voice against the vandalism of our cities by modern development which is still relevant today. Well worth a read and also worth looking at his TV programmes, some of which feature on YouTube,Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
