Book excerpt: From 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 American, 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.
