Sir Banister Fletcher's A History of Architecture is the acknowledged classic work of architectural history reference. Since the first edition was published in 1896, it has been declared the 'Book of the Century' by the American Institute of Architects and it has become essential reading for generations of architects and students. This tradition continues today, with the 21st edition providing the most up-to-date, authoritative and detailed account of the global history of architecture available in any form.
In this unique work, thousands of the world's major buildings are described and explained, in many cases accompanied by detailed and beautiful plans, drawings, and photographs. Architectural styles, traditions, and buildings are all placed within an easy-to-use framework, allowing comparative analysis of the cultural contexts, resources, and technological processes that have affected the development of architecture from prehistoric times to the present day.
This new 21stedition, edited by architectural critic Tom Dyckhoff, brings into focus the key topics of current critical concern, including sustainability, vernacular architecture, and cross-cultural exchanges throughout history. This complements and extends the existing coverage, which has throughout been updated to reflect the very latest scholarship in architectural history, bringing a thoroughly contemporary understanding of the world's buildings and the contexts in which they were built. Richly detailed explorations of exemplary buildings are joined by new images and drawings for which A History of Architecture is justifiably famous, and new sections examining the architecture in the 21stcentury bring the coverage right up to date, providing a valuable historical context to the work of contemporary architects such as Frank Gehry and Zaha Hadid.
This richly detailed source of information will help provide an understanding of the architecture of any period from around the world. In the words of Sir Banister Fletcher himself, this 'provides a key to the habits, thoughts and aspirations of the people, and without a knowledge of this art the history of any period lacks that human interest with which it should be invested; ... the study of Architecture opens up the enjoyment of buildings with an appreciation of their purpose, meaning and charm.'



A new edition of a long-standing classic. The most authoritative account of the history of architecture, detailing thousands of major buildings from around the world.

An integral text in any aspiring home-designers education (it was voted book of the century by the American Institute of Architects in 2000), it looks at the development of the built form over the past 5,500 years. * Monocle * The books greatly increased range is remarkable, providing an encyclopedic global picture in which every reader will almost certainly find something new ... A contentious classic reinvented for a new generation through previously unheard viewpoints and not a moment too soon. * RIBA Journal * Book of the Century ... A thundering classic. No serious fan of architecture should be without it -- (of the twentieth edition) * The American Institute of Architects * The bible of architectural history. -- (of the twentieth edition) * Building Magazine * An easy-to-use reference book with all the world's major architecture described, explained and, in many cases, fully illustrated. -- (of the twentieth edition) * B & M Architecture & Design * It will continue its usefulness beyond the years of study and become an additional aid to everyday practice. -- (of the twentieth edition) * Times Higher Education Supplement * It will remain one of the most thumbed tomes in Building Design's office library -- (of the twentieth edition) * Building Design * It is such a remarkable book, containing so much detail and so skilfully illustrated, that it is a must for all architectural and surveying offices -- (of the twentieth edition) * ASI Journal * Half the pleasure, as half the volume, of Banister Fletcher is its pictures.
