By crossing evenly over the dividing line between the historical and modern periods, it offers valuable insights on indigenous roots underlying some aspects of Germany's invigorating early twentieth-century architectural developments. Around seventy five buildings are mentioned and illustrated, a dozen are given extensive analysis and th focuses on the works of three architects – Schinkel, Behrens and Mies.
