"Architecture and Democracy", by Claude Fayette Braydon published in 1918. John F. Braydon tries to separate America architectual forms from the Classic and Gothic era, stating that Democracy requires its' own form. He takes us through the cities with large concrete buildings like the ones found in New York which he considers them to be power structures meant to carry on financial business. He is of the opinion that America is built on materialism and people have loss site of comradeship except soldiers when deprived of all but essentil materials, they find strengh in fellow soldiers. He continues to give the properties of good architectual form as needing features of organic forms and light to make it good form.

The writing is good, but the author is a little redundant.

Another fine work by Bragdon. I am fan so I do have an admitted bias for Mr. Bragdon. Worth a read.
