People: a talent to provoke

Article Abstract:

A love of architecture and a desire to make people more aware of its role in society were the two major elements which started Timothy Mowl on his writing career as an architectural historian. Mowl studied his craft at Oxford University where he was influenced by his mentor Sir Howard Colvin. An appreciation of all types of architecture is necessary to be able to convincingly discuss the advantages and disadvantages of people's individual works.
