Vincent Scully was a Professor of the History of Art at Yale University.  In this book, part of The Great Ages of World Architecure series, he examines the significant aspects of twentieth-century architecture from the first successful attempts made by Louis Sullivan to give steel construction its own form and expression, to the unique creative originality of Frank Lloyd Wright.  He also discusses Art Nouveau in Europe, Gropius and Bauhaus, and finally such influential figures as Mies van der Rohe, Alvar Aalto, and Le Corbusier.

First edition, first printing, 1961.  Hardcover, 128 pages.
