Book synopsis

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. John H. Edelmann (1852 - 1900) was a socialist-anarchist who worked as an architect in the office of Alfred Zucker, a successful commercial architect of the 1880s and 1890s in New York City. As an architect, Edelmann's sole surviving monument is the former headquarters of the Decker Brothers Piano Company, the Decker Building (1893), at 33 Union Square West, New York. Paul Sprague, a professor of architectural history at the University of Wisconsin at Milwaukee, reports that Louis Sullivan credited Edelmann with the idea for his maxim, "Form follows function," a watchword of Modernism.
