Description and Table of Contents

Description

This book examines the creation of a startling motif at the beginning of the twentieth century--that of the faceless man--and traces its evolution over the next few years. The faceless man evolved in different directions. His strategic location ensured that he would be adopted by numerous schools and shaped according to their particular needs.
