All of the main leaders of the movement are covered. Unique illustrations show examples of museum quality pieces: the typical production of the Guilds, the Cotswold School, the Glasgow designers, Heal, Liberty and the major commercial companies including Gordon Russell. The principal American followers are also included. Each section details the furniture of the architects and designers involved.
