This book complements a commemorative
exhibition of the Festival of Britain which the Victoria & Albert
Museum staged in 1976. Eminent essayists write about the South Bank
Exhibition, The Battersea Park Pleasure Gardens (the amusement park,
which gets an entire chapter), the Lansbury (Architecture & Housing)
Exhibition, the Science Exhibition, the Land Travelling Exhibition,
the Campania Exhibition's supposedly 'flimsy effeminate style'.
Scarce title.
