Gas
More Nairn, woo hoo! This one published in 1967, reproducing articles written for The Listener magazine.
From the Preface:
"These sixteen articles were written for The Listener in two batches; eleven in 1960-1 and five in 1964. So I am not the same person who plunged into Birmingham, bustling with adjective, seven years ago: older, fatter, and very much sadder about the prospect of a proper modern architecture, even more so about capabilities of modern architects. The postscripts reflect this."
