The London Group 1913-1939 is the first detailed record of the largest society devoted to the development of modern art in Britain. The Group's founder members included Walter Bayes, Robert Bevan, Malcolm Drummond, Jacob Epstein, Harold Gilman, Spencer Gore, Duncan Grant, Wyndham Lewis, J.B. Manson, John Nash and Ethel Sands. As the spearhead of modernism in Britain the London Group evoked heated controversy. However, by 1937 the 'News Chronicle'' was describing the Group as the 'The Intelligent Man's Royal Academy'.

Drawing on previously unpublished sources, this study lists all member exhibits and non-member exhibitors at the Group's shows between 1914 and 1939, together with brief biographies of the artists. Appendices republish the prefaces and forewords to many of the Group's exhibitions.

The reference book provides valuable information and insight into one of the most significant bodies in 20th- century British painting and sculpture.

After studying under Mark Gertler and Bernard Meninsky at the Westminster School of Art, Margaret Geddes went to Paris and developed an interest in Abstraction. She became a significant member of the post-war British abstract movement and exhibited annually alongside Patrick Heron, Roger Hilton, Peter Lanyon and others at the Redfern Gallery during the 1950's, 60's and 70's.
