Book Description
In a career that spanned just 16 years, Charles Sargeant Jagger (1885-1934) established himself as one of the leading war memorial sculptors in the years following 1918. His military figures display Jagger's artistic motivations. In contrast to the fashion for idealism, the features of the models are workman-like. Their strikingly symmetrical poses also reflect the influence of primitive art. The combination of realism and primitivism is evident throughout Jagger's body of work, including his later creations such as his religious works and portrait statues. In this, the first study of the sculptor's oeuvre, Ann Compton seeks to place Jagger on the art-history map. Including research from the artist's private papers which have been previously unavailable, The Sculpture of Charles Sargeant Jagger will provide an authoritative overview of a career that has been unduly neglected.

Book Description
British architecture between the wars is most famous for the rise of modernism - the flat roofs, clean lines and concrete of the Isokon flats in Hampstead and the Penguin Pool at London Zoo - but the reality was far more diverse. As the modernists came of age and the traditionalists began to decline, there arose a rich variety of styles and tastes in Britain and across the empire, a variety that reflected the restless zeitgeist of the years before the Second World War. At the time of his death in 2017, Gavin Stamp, one of Britain's leading architectural critics, was at work on a deeply considered account of British architecture in the interwar period, correcting what he saw as the skewed view of earlier historians who were unable to see past modernism. Beginning with a survey of the modern movement after the armistice, Interwar untangles the threads that link lesser-known movements like the Egyptian revival with the enduring popularity of the Tudorbethan, to chronicle one of Britain's most dynamic architectural periods. The result is more than an architectural history - it is the portrait of a changing nation. As an account of the period that still shapes much of Britain's towns and cities, Gavin Stamp's final work is the definitive history of British architecture between the Great War and the Blitz.
