Barry Parker (1867-1944) was a leading figure in the Arts and
Crafts Movement in England. In partnership with Raymond Unwin he
planned the world's first 'Garden City', at Letchworth, and
London's Hampstead Garden Suburb. They also designed many
individual houses and other buildings. In 1910 Parker began
publication of a series of essays called 'Modern Country Homes in
England' in The Craftsman, an influential American journal. It was
his hope that these would be eventually collected together in book
form, and would thus stand as a statement of his architectural
beliefs. This volume, first published in 1986, is based upon these
essays, and offers a critical evaluation of Parker's work. Many of
the illustrations are taken from original drawings and photographs.
