Memoirs of the Life and Works of Sir Christopher Wren: With a Brief View of the Progress of Architecture in England, from the Beginning of the Reign of Charles the First to the End of the Seventeenth Century - Cambridge Library Collection - Art and Archit
James Elmes
This 1823 work, the first biography of Wren, is based on the so-called 'Parentalia', or notes on the Wren family compiled by his son (also Christopher) and privately printed by his grandson Stephen in 1750. James Elmes places Wren's life in the context of the intellectual ferment of Restoration England.
