Show Notes

In this final installment of our journey through Victorian architecture, we travel the globe in the wake of the Royal Navy to see how the technologies that allowed the British Empire to grow also made Victorian architecture a global style. Then, we travel to the Wild West of the US to see how this backwards-looking school of design led to the radical new architecture of Modernism.
