FRS Yorke and the Evolution of English Modernism

FRS Yorke was an influential architect in the early part of this century and his work is still referred to and seen as forward-thinking today. No other book has been written on Yorke, despite some titles being written about the mega-firm YRM, of which he was the founding member. Yorke was the most influential figure of British Modernist architecture and was known internationally. Yorke wrote and published The Modern House, one of the most influential books of the Modern Movement. Modernist architecture and its executors have influenced every architectural style since the beginning of this century.
