AIA Journal - November 1960 (Published monthly by The American Institute of Architects, New York) Anonymous Book review: The Master Builders. Blake, 1960. $6.50. The three leaders are, of course: Le Corbusiers, , Miss van der Rohe and Frank Lloyd Wright whom Blake convincingly presents as the "great law givers" of modern architecture. In telling us how their lives developed in theory and practice he acts on his belief that the artist rather than economic, sociological or technological forces write the history of art. He manages to penetrate the fog behind which Corbu and Frank Lloyd Wright insist... Continue... (Sweeney 1380) Pp 84 1380.00.0618 Sweeney 1381: Prairie School Review - No 1, 1965.
